Millisecond Timer Problems

allaboutiweb

Hi,

I've just been watching the 'How to add a timer down to milliseconds' in the cookbook and after checking, double checking and even triple checking I still get 'Invalid Expression' appearing in the Actor when I preview the game?? Any clues?

Cheers,

AAi

what have you written as an expression?

Exactly (and I did this twice just so as to check) what it says in the CookBook Video with all the floors and .. and (( and )) and % etc etc

Make sure you select "floor" and "game.time" from the function and attribute drop-down menus, respectively.

The expression should read:

floor(floor((game.time%3600)/60)/10)..floor((floor(game.time%3600)/60)/%10)..":"..floor((game.time%60)/10)..floor(game.time%10)..":"..(floor(game.time*10(%10)..floor(floor(game.time*100)%10)

Hope I typed that right. :-P

Thanks msones, but that didn't work either.

Not to worry though, FireMapleGames has it working in this example:
