I was thinking about indenting a countdown timer in my new room escape game, and I would like to know how to create a countdown timer with a set time field in minutes, rather than the other that goes by retrieving a date first. E.g. I would like to create one that counts down from 20 minutes, rather than one that gets the time and minute and date, and shows the correct time fields.
View 2 Repliesat the tail end of my Flash cs4, actionscript 3.0 college project and want to incorporate a countdown Timer Event when there is a 3 minute delay of usage in the flash movie (interactive).Below is what I understand and want to accomplish.Is it correct to place the actionscript code in the actions layer of the 1st frame within the 1st scene?And will it be recognized throughout all the scenes within the flash movie?1. Have the flash movie recognize a delay of usage (no clicking) after 3 minutes to start a countdown Timer Event.??Where would I add code to the timer to fire every 3 minutes during a delay of usage?
import flash.utils.Timer;
import flash.events.TimerEvent;
var count:Number = 11;

I'm making a side scrolling flash game called Kit-Run using actionscript 2.0. I want to give each level a two minute time limit - ideally to have an enemy mc load that comes and kills you when it reaches 00:00.
I've found a lot of tutorials that count down time limits for dates, but none for a simple minute counter. I've started with a dynamic text field called "timeDisplay". What do I now??
I need to make a countdown timer that starts at 1 minute, in this format 00:01:00.0.I found some code online that achieved this, but its in AS1. I've found some other examples/walkthoughs, but they are really basic and have no milliseconds.
View 2 RepliesI'm trying to create a countdown timer from 42 to 0, that work pretty good, but I want to make more space between the the number 1 0 something like this
Code:
timer = 42;
countdown = function(){
timer--;
if(timer==0){
clearInterval(countdownInterval);
}} countdownInterval = setInterval(countdown,1000);
How I can make it?

View 1 RepliesWhat I'd like to do is create a countdown timer to a specific date, but from all the tutorials I've read, I can't seem to find one that will include milliseconds; only a Day:hour:min:sec format.What I'd like is an Hour:min:sec:milliseconds format (the milliseconds whilst considerably pointless, is an aesthetic choice - I'm hoping the frantically changing numbers will display a sense of urgency).I'm using Flash CS4, and the following Actionscript so far:
Actionscript Code:
var endDate:Date = new Date(2012,9,6);var countdownTimer:Timer = new Timer(1000);countdownTimer.addEventListener(TimerEvent.TIMER, updateTime);countdownTimer.start();function updateTime(e:TimerEvent):void{ var now:Date = new Date(); var timeLeft:Number = endDate.getTime() - now.getTime(); var seconds:Number = Math.floor(timeLeft / 1000); var minutes:Number = Math.floor(seconds /

View 5 Repliescoding, create a *******' timer to the exact time. I found billionsof tutorials to countdown to a day, but NOBODY can provide a sampleto countdown to a date and time (i.e. Dec. 25 @ 8PM).I need this to countdown to a TV show's premier. And I'm adesigner not a coder... so there has to be a FLA file out therethat I could snag and just update the graphics and plug in a timeand date, and then it counts down once I make a SWF?

View 8 RepliesI have been looking at tutorials and forums for almost three hours now. I am building an analog timer that goes to two minutes. I've setup a timer and have attempted to get the second hand to rotate as the timer continues. So far all it does is move that initial rotation. It looks like only 15 degrees or so. and it doesn't seem to matter what numbers I change it only goes to that 15 degrees.
Here is my code so far:
ActionScript Code:
var twoMinuteTimer:Timer = new Timer(1000, 120);
this.addEventListener("enterFrame",onEnterFrame);
function onEnterFrame(event:Event):void

I'm trying to make a countdown timer, but I haven't really learnt all about actionscript. (not yet anyway), but I need a timer that can count down the hours, minutes, seconds and milliseconds from a given time to an other.

01:31:53:70 (hour:minutes:seconds:milliseconds) and then it should count down so the timer stops at:

I want to add a moving background loops of clouds moving left to right ( or vice versa). I made it last night with regular tween but only at 1800 frames which made the counter stop at that.
