How do I create a create a gameover countdown when my time scale is 0?

hi everyone when the players health reachs 0 I make the Do_you_want_to_continue? layer visiable and pause the game by setting the time scale to 0.

but what i want to add to my game over screen is a countdown timer like in all the old arcade games.

but if the time scale is set to 0 I can't do that can I?

since all timed commands like every secound do not work

you can put a variable that subtracts 1 value every second and when it reaches 0 it takes you to the gameover layout

yes but when the time scale is 0 you can't use the every secound command

You can set the time scale of individual objects rather than the games timescale.

System> Set object time scale

Use families to make it simpler.

This is the method I suggest people start with since regular time scale changes sound as well.
