Stopwatch! Can't find this anywhere

I looked everywhere and I feel a little dumb asking but How do I make a stopwatch?

I am trying to use the time variables but they don't seem to reset to 0 when I asked them to. Neither the game or the prototype variable.

I am trying to have a character start a timer when he collides with and object and stop the timer when he collides with another while displaying the time all along.

Please help.

Thanks

    You can't modify game OR actor time attributes at runtime. You can constrain them to your own real attribute and then do whatever you want with it. Example:

    Change: game.myTimeOffset to game.time

    Constrain: game.myRunningTime to `game.time - game.myTimeOffset`

    Just repeat step #1 anytime you need your running time reset to '0'...

    I have a demo on my wall that explains how to work with time in GameSalad. Feel free to dig through it.

    The Photics: Toolbox has a stopwatch. It basically converts game.Time to an angle.
