[Behavior] Timer

Document, plugin and sample capx are included.

Compared with official timer behavior

There are some different between this timer behavior and official timer behavior.

1. This timer behavior has "Repeat" parameter for each timer. Official timer only has once or infinity mode.

2. This timer behavior could still be running when setting time-scale of this instance to 0 (Set "Sync timescale" to "No"). Official timer will be paused when time-scale to 0 .

3. This timer might trigger "Condition:On time-out" many times in a tick. Official timer only trigger "Condition:On timer" once mostly. For example, set time-out to 0.01 and run infinity. This timer will trigger "Condition:On time-out" 100 times in 1 second. Official timer will trigger "Condition:On timer" 60 times in 1 second.

4. "Condition:On time-out" of this timer will be triggered for each instance. "Condition:On timer" of official timer will be triggered for those instances which time-out in this tick, so that it need add "Condition: for each" to pick each instance.

wow another one. Keep'em coming!

Put function,timeline into plugins\ folder.

Put timer into behaviors\ folder. Timer is a behavior for all instances of one sprite object.

I can't choose the timer options in sprite actions. I put the Timer in behavior- and function and timeline in plugins-folder. But there is no possibility to add an timer action. The objects are added in project.

Ok, problem ist resolved. It was to easy my mistake.

Glad to hear that.

(Sorry, I still can not catch your problem.)

It was simple. I forgot to add the behavoir timer to my sprite. So i did not had the functionality. All works fine now.

Radmir

Anyway, thanks for using Timer behavior.

Update:

Add version mark to 1.0

This is a awesome idea, but I seems to have a problem.

I can't get the stuff to work, it seems that timeline and countdown behavior is all installed.

When requesting a countdown of 1 second, then it is done in one tick. Even when creating much higher countdown times, then they are still done in one tick.

Can one create a simple example with a simple countdown function?

It would be most appreciated.

Uh, do you mean Cooldown behavior? There already has an example. Could it work on your computer?

I had some problems, but now it works. Don�t know what happen, but now it works excellent and it makes it much easier.

Thanks for the response.
