How do you make a timer that counts down from 999 and when it reaches 0 deactivate a barrier.
A trigger loop with a delay of one second broadcasting to a counter that starts at 999 and has a target value of 0 that then transmits on a channel to deactivate a barrier.
Idk lol fast wpm I guess.

a trigger loop → wired to counter (start at specific number 999) and set target value to 0 which then transmits to a channel to deactivate the barrier.

a trigger loop (two triggers that trigger each other) wire one to a lifecycle then set a delay for both triggers as 1 (for 1 second) and wire both up to a counter that has a starting value of 999 then in the wire make it so that its like: [triggers → decrement counter] and set the target value of the counter to 0 and wire the counter to a barrier like [target value reached → deactivate barrier] hopefully this makes sense to everyone; not just me :o

Welcome to the forums @somerandomdude , make sure to read the FAQ and the other rules and/or announcements, also I agree with you, that would work.
You don’t need 2 triggers, you could have 1 trigger with the settings
Trigger when recieving on channel "H"
When triggered broadcast on channel "H"
Sorry, forgot to mention 
, but you would need to jump start it with a lifcycle on game start, that sends out signal “H”

However, two is good unless you want to use a wire. Since how would you activate the first one?

This post is old, the problem (I think) has been solved, and the OP is inactive..
Can a tl4 please close this?
pls mark a comment as the solution if one works, if you don’t people wont know if you got it or not and keep adding things, if you mark it people will know you got the solution and nobody will spend their time keep adding.
Welcome to the forums, I know trigger loops are way better but you might want to use a repeater if you are new to GKC. Just set the repeater’s amount of time per task to 999 seconds, then make it broadcast a channel that deactivates a barrier.
