How to make an accurate timer šŸŸ„

Great guide! I always wondered how GK8 had that feature.

suggestion, make the time multiply by 100, round it, then divide by 100 so there are only 2 digits afterward and it doesnā€™t look like this:

2: 03.000000000000007

Itā€™s fine! I just want people to not make posts and decisions because they were uninformed! Sorry if my tone was bad!

not really, you canā€™t hear tone over the computer, just as long as all caps mean emphasis and not rage than I usually ā€œhear/readā€ nice or monotone

Beat you to it. Except not trying to copy, and not as accurate of a timer system (however, that could changeā€¦)

Well, I donā€™t think you had to add [that] at the end of the sentence because the ā€œi love itā€ already communicates a positive tone and you could get wrongly flagged [1]


  1. for a second, i thought you meant [that] ā†©ļøŽ

Love this guide! I tried a timer similar to this before but I scrapped the project to work on DOORS.

I think so.

You didnā€™t?

I am so confused.

frfr I use too many footnotesā€¦

That is my favorite thing about your guides.

huh.

me too


This was a great guide! As mysz said, your guides have their own style which make them so enjoyable to read! I hope to see more guides soon!

Sorry to disappoint, but this is probably the second to last guide for a while. I just donā€™t have anything to make a guide about anymore.

I donā€™t get why you need a separate triggerloop for minutes into game. Canā€™t you just take this instead:

round_down[ seconds/60]

When I tried to have the minutes in game based off of the SecondsSinceGameStart property, the minute part of the timer always broke in some weird way. I tried a couple different methods to get it to work, but the only method that worked for me was to count minutes externally, hence why I have it in the guide. If it works for you though you can go ahead and use it though!
