Hi.

I need to display the countdown timer for all players to see.

For example, "Time till next wave - (number)"

The display will come on when the timer starts, and will go away when the countdown finishes.

Which trigger function do I use for this?

Thanks.

You would use 2:

Timer - Start (However long of a timer) 1 shot timer for 30.00 seconds

Timer - Create Timer Window for (Last Started Timer)

Also, because you want the window to dissapear when the timer expires, you may need to store it to a variable so you can destroy it later with the "destroy timer window" action. That is, unless this is the only timer window you have at once on the map. In that case, you can easily destroy it with the "last created timer window" function, because there is no window created in the meantime that would overwrite the first.
