the problem is that i can't make a timer... what i want is right from map initilization i want a timer window in the top right of the screen that starts at 30 seconds and counts down... when it hits 0 i want it to reset back to 30 seconds and have the caption beside it say: till Level 2... (then when it hits 0 again it goes back up to 30 and beside it says: till Level 3) etc etc up to and including lvl 40... i don't want to pause it or anything... i just want it to count down and reset... how do i do this? (i am a beginner map maker so unless u tell me step by step i won't understand you)!!!

TY

You can't create timers on Map Init. you have to make them at 0.00 seconds.

You cannot use Map Initialization as an event. You must use something virtually the same, such as the event Time: Time Elapsed: and put a value like 1.00 seconds. It's not -technically- map initialization, but no one will tell the difference. ;)
