I was wondering if anyone knew of a Countdown Clock Script for 20 minutes. I'm working on a game for an elementary class, and each segment of the game is 20 minutes long. Is there a way to make a countdown like this? And how would I apply the script to an instance (text field)
View 3 RepliesI am however hosting an event at the end of this month to which I need countdown timer that counts down 30 minutes from when I begin playing the movie.
00:00:30:00 -> 00:00:29:55 and so on until the movie reaches 00:00:00:00.
If possible.. I'd like that movie to open an additional flash movie once that timer has reached 0, if that can be done. - But for now I'd just be happy with a simple countdown timer that counts down from 30 minutes.
Now I HAVE tried to utilize the various tutorials that are about, the problem is they all seem to be WAY too complex for what I'm looking to do here...As I said all I'm looking for is a flash document that will countdown from 30 minutes once i've opened the movie..
Before I get started, I would like to point out that I'm just getting started in flash, so this may very well fit better under the newbies forum. The goal: I'm trying to put together a countdown timer, which can count down from preset amount of time to zero, then trigger an announcement event, as well as an event at 30 seconds, 1, 2, and 3 minutes left. Later on I hope to add in a setup for this to turn into a Debate timer with start/stop/next speech button, but for now, I just need to figure out the timer bit.
[Code]....
I'm on the last stage of developing my game, and I need to display a countdown timer, lasting 3 minutes. I want to display the time counting down in the format "3:00" and then when the timer hits the full 3 minutes an event is fired and it stops, and I display a few other things along with it in the same function. The difficulty I have is actually doing the bit where I display the timer and update it accordingly. If there is any genius out there who can do this (In AS3) then you are my new best friend. I only have a few hours till my submission deadline, and this thing is KILLING ME!!! hypothetically.

View 2 RepliesI've been surfing around trying to find a tutorial or an open source file, on how to make an analogue clock tick backwards to a defined date/time. Maybe even with a shorter day 'hand'.
There's some really good digital looking ones out there, but me being the difficult person I am, it has to be analogue.
I am looking for a countdown timer what will countdown mins + seconds. All Ican find is a countdown to an event christmas day etc, but this wont work for what I need. I need a timer countdown that wont start again everytime a user enters the game I need a timer so all users enter the game at exactly the same time to the second, I've tried to do it using as3 php mysql but there is to much time difference between users how will I do this.
View 2 Repliesi am trying to create a 24 hour countdown clock that will loop and play backwards counting it self back down to 00:00:00:00, being new to flash As3 i am struggling to create this animation

I have been given this code by a very helpful user
var timer:Timer = new Timer(1000);
var currentSeconds:int = 86400;
var milliseconds:int = 86400000;[code].......
the problem i am having now is do i need to add an instance name to the 00:00:00:00 design on the flash stage for the code to work as i have tried and i think im doing something wrong.

gotta clock that goes from 60seconds-0secondsthats the code it works finebut i cant find out how to make it go to the next scene when it hits zero i tried code 2 but it doesnt work

spent all morning trying to intergrate a xml feed into the countdown clock from the tutorial offered on this site.
var eventDate;
var race_time;
var race_location;
var raceYear = race_year;
var raceMonth = race_month;
[Code]...
The problem seems stem from the XML data coming in as a string which then needs to be converted into a integer for the new Date(); object.
I don't know how to do it. Check it out
View 10 RepliesI'm coding a clock/countdown timer, and I'm confused about the UTC time. Currently Windows tells me that it's 11:41 UTC+1 (I live in Poland), but when I google the current UTC time it's 9:41 (UTC+0), so where did that one hour go?

What we have is a countdown clock that hits 0 at the start of a global sailboat race. The race start is in New Zealand, our servers are in Chicago. We're using a php script to pull the time from the server in Chicago, but for some reason the clock looks different in each time zone. This is a problem, because if your at the race it will say 10 minutes to the start, but if your in Chicago, it will say 10 hours or whatever it is.Here's the site.
Here's the code, AS2:
Code:
var targetDate:Date = new Date(2009, 1, 20, 19, 15, 0, 0);/*correct start time in chicago time. start time is feb 21, 01:15 */
var currentDate:Date;
if (cMilli != undefined) {
[code]....
I have changed my newDate to see where the problem lies but cannot get it to match my target time to 2/22/2012 7pm
this.onEnterFrame = function() {
var today = new Date();
var currentYear = today.getFullYear();

I have a simple analog clock, but I want it to show how long time store is open. so I quess there have to have some kind of transparent circle, which goes along as clock's pointers how to execute this?

minutes = time.getMinutes()

I need to do a countdown time coder showing minutes, seconds and frames (25fps). I've searched a lot but w/out a fish The only similar thing I found is the Kirupa's tut, but I think it's too much graphical (I'd like it only w/ fonts) and actually I'm not so AS skilled Does anybody know where can I start or a good tut?

View 1 RepliesI would like to make a binary countdown clock now. I followed senocular's tutorial on making a countdown timer, but it didn't work. How to make a countdown timer, and if possible make it use individual units of time, not just milliseconds, for the calculations. The problem with his tutorial that keeps me from changing the code to fit my needs is that it converts the numbers into a string and changes the numbers accordingly. I need to change the alpha of an mc depending on if the number goes into the binary form of the time left until the event.
When I made my clock, I knew that the time could never go under 1:00:00, and never over 23:59:59. All I did was made each "light" check what the value was, and if it needed to be "on" or "off", and then changed it accordingly. The code in each "light" is about 115 lines. Imagine making a check for each value if the event date is a year away! I can't attach a *.fla for my clock, because it is too big, but it's located here.
I have to make this analog clock for a university assignment and despite some really good efforts last night and tonight I just can't work out how to get it fully working. There is both a digital and analog clock; the digital clock works fine, but the analog clock just starts from a random time whenever I play the test movie. I am supposed to use the date object, not the timer object. And I am also supposed to add a sound every minute - I have added the sound to the minutes layer and selected but I don't know where to go from there. I seem to be able to find lots of example code for the timer object but not the date.
this.addEventListener("enterFrame",clockHandler); false, 0, true;
function clockHandler(e:Event)

Im trying to design a countdown timer, with the ability to set the countdown time through buttons.I would like to have the dynamic text field to display the countdown numbers in HH:MM:SS format.I would also love to have a 30 minute button, and a 15 minute button which generates the time in the text field.Then a start and stop button to begin or end the countdown sequence.
View 3 Repliescan you tell me if it is possible to detect if an object is rotating anti clockwise or not? at present i get x,y co-ords and use the code below to rotate it which is fine. now i could write an if statement to check if rotation is negative or positive but because rotation can be negative and positive when rotating clockwise and anti clockwise this wouldnt work.

I have a countdown to a specific date. Mine is 31st of december 2009. But I want a number related to the countdown. So it starts with lets say 8000.Now I have the number related to the amount of days. 62 is 8000, 61 is 7500, 60 is 7000... etc. When you enter the page it checks the countdown date and relates a starting number, every 3 sec. the number goes decreases. I want to add an action to every countdown. I know there must be a better way of coding this...
The best would be that the number decreases realtime, so everytime you go to the page number changes... Does anybody know a good way of doing this or provide a related tutorial link ? I really tried to find an example, but every countdown tutorial is related to time only....
Code:
onEnterFrame = function() {
var today:Date = new Date();
