Timer Under Rule

Ritskis

Hey, I have a rule that when two attributes are true, the timer should run. But the timer runs from the beginning of the scene. I have no idea what I am doing wrong... If it makes a difference the timer changes an attribute every so often. Any Suggestions?

im no master at this stuff, but at first i would make 2 actors that display txt. one with each attribute on the screen, and figure out which attribute is changing, and then maybe you can figure out whats changing it from when it does.

Hmmm, All the attributes are correct, I think its a problem with the timer under the rule. What I have is When two attributes are true, Start timer (every 0.01) > Change Attribute (GameScore) and then I have the timer formula from one of TShirtbooths videos. The Longer the timer the higher the score but instead of the timer waiting for the two attributes to be true it starts as soon as the scene is loaded. :S

I am having a similar problem with my timer starting as soon as the scene starts. I have been working on it all day Did you find the answer?

Unfortunately not @keweworkshop packed in for the day, will try again tomorrow this is possibly a bug though all attributes are correct and putting different behaviours under the same rule behave as they should just not the timer.

Wow haha just about given up, thanks I'll take a look!

UPDATE: Works brilliant thanks keweworkshop so much and scitunes if you ever read this. A much simpler timer as well compared to the formula I had.
