How to create a timer in Gimkit

So, uhh, lets use some pretty basic tech here guys, so let’s get started.

Devices/Props

What you will need: 4 Triggers A Lifecycle Counter or whatever respawning prop… Maybe? (I will be using a counter)

First, place down your Lifecycle. Make it transmit on a channel if you want, but otherwise you don’t need to do anything [Screenshot 2023-11-09 7.55.46 PM] Second, place down three triggers. Click on one of your triggers and set time to whatever you want. Also, for your first trigger,…

Here’s a guide for it.

Power System, like FNaF1 ()

This guide will only go over how can you make the power deplet, like in fnaf1 (or any fnaf game that uses electricity, fnaf sl or fnaf1, for example). I won’t go over how to make it deplet faster depending on usage, since when I tried to make it is kind of buggy. It uses blocks and wires so uhh, I dont know. System This is how it should like when done: [Screenshot 2023-11-12 11.42.44 AM] Requires Devices: 1 Lifecycle 1 Wire Repeater 1 Trigger 1 Counter 1 Property 1 Overlay There will also…

This should help!

@Haiasi

Let’s place a counter linked to a number property called “Power.”
Feel free to make the property value anything you want

Now, connect your “Close Left Door” overlay to a repeater that decrements a counter, therefore decrementing the property as well.
Feel free to decrement as fast as you want, maybe even add extra repeaters to decrement it more.

Repeat this for the Left Door

Now, let’s work on how to stop deducting the energy.

Connect the “Open Left Door” and “Open Right Door” buttons to stop the repeater.

Repeat for the doorlights.

(This is just for the timer, you can click the arrow to view the whole post, I’m working on my TUG to FNAF, it should be finished before December)

actually, I ended up finding out how to make the door system on my own. but! I did use the guides.
I used whereismyhat’s tutorial link, but I also used Haiasi’s guide as well!
PS: I will make a guide on this soon.
