How to make a colon-separated timer (Difficulty: )

In this tutorial, you will learn how to use game overlays to display text, and use math to turn numbers to time-form. What you will need: [g1] 1x Property 1x Repeater 1x Trigger 1x Counter 1x Game Overlay And of course, something to start the timer! I used a button for this. The first device we need to edit is the property. Set the name to timer, set the type to number, the default value to the amount of time you want the timer to last, and the scope to global [g2] Next, Let’s edit the…

Make a loop between the overlay, a trigger and another trigger with delay on the first.

1 trigger, 1 wire repeater, 2 game overlays, and a property:

now we go to the first overlay and set it to “button”:
overlay text: press (put whatever you want here)
scope: player
show when receiving on channel: countdown over

get a property and set it to:
name: countdown ( just make sure it corresponds with the block code later)
default value: 10 (I used ten just you your countdown value, make sure the to change it in blocks)
scope: player

Get a trigger:
trigger when receiving on: countdown continues
when triggered, transmit on: countdown
delay: 1 second

now get your second overlay, and set it to text:
scope: player
text: leave this blank
show when receiving on channel: countdown
hide when receiving on channel: countdown over

now go to blocks and set it to: when receiving on channel countdown, do this:

NOW THE WIRES:
overlay(button), trigger: button pressed —> trigger
trigger, overlay(button): triggered —> hide overlay

and you are DONE!
