heres the plan.... I have a trigger that creates a multiboard and this multiboard show lots of various stuff, including a timer countdown, well the value of the remaining time. Now i know i need to make a trigger to update the multiboard item that displays the remaining time left on the countdown timer, so i made one that updates it every 1 second of the game...but!... The mutliboard is only designed to come up occasionally so i made ther trigger not intially on, and the trigger that creates the multiboard turns the trigger on. Heres the problem --> the trigger that updates the value on the multiboard wont seem to work. So does any1 have an idea of what i can do to make the multiboard display the countdown timer value and so it always updates to the time left? note: using a countdown timer window is not an option on this occasion. |

periodic event should work. Give us your triggers to let us see whats wrong. |

Ok the first one makes the multiboard then turns on the second trigger which updates the time on the multiboard. p.s. the pictures are attached in case u cant tell. |

Turn the second trigger "Initialy on" to true. It wont matter if it updates a multiboard that doesn't exist. |
