Timer won´t show....

Here´s the code / triggers I´ve used.

Countdown timer- Start Expiring timer as a oneshot timer that will expire in 3000.00 seconds

Set Smalltimer = Last started Timer

Countdown timer - Create a timer window for SmallTimer with title Countdown

Set SmallTwindow = Last created Timer window

Countdown timer - Show SmallTwindow

Game - Display to all palyers the text: Timer running

I get the timer running message, but no timer window.... Whats gone wrong ??

I experimented with that last night. You only need 2 triggers.

Countdown Timer - One Shot expirers in X seconds.
Countdown Timer - Show (variable) window

You have to assigned it a Variable. But it looks like you figured that out. The tricky part is making the trigger vanish once its completed its cycle. Once your event happens (after timer expired) put in the trigger

Countdown Timer - Destroy Last created Window

That should work.... I'll check when I get home tonight to make sure that set up is accurate.
