How to I maker a timer countdown?

[skatefilter5]

I was wondering how do I put a timer when my homie dies until being revived like in saints row.

 

But in the opcode I only see these:

014E: start_timer_at $7234 count_in_direction 1 // global_variable

014F: stop_timer $1923

0890: enable_sound_when_timer $253 reach 3 seconds // global_variable

03C3: set_timer_to $1923 type 1 GXT 'BB_19' // global_variable // Time

If I add like that, when there's no start of "$782 = timer" it will crash when I use these.

I type "timer" and that's it shows.

What did you mean by this? Nevermind, if you're going to use timers you should now that these opcodes work only with global variables and that it's not a good idea to create a global variable in a CLEO script. Seemann wrote some functions that allow you to create a timer or a counter without global variables, so if you want you can use them instead. I wrote an example:

VARNUMBER

Number of a variable that should store the time/count, for example 2, 33, ...

 

TYPE

SetStatusText:

- 0 show number

- 1 show status bar

SetTimer:

- 0 increasing

- 1 decreasing

 

GXT

GXT key of text that you want to show (eg. 'BB_19' = TIME). If you don't want text, set 0.

To set GXT you need to use label and 0900 like shown in this example.

 

LINE

You can use up to 4 counters.

So LINE can have values 0, 1, 2, 3.

- You can have only one timer.

I feel like if you still use global variables in CLEO scripts when told not to, you should really start studying how to code...
