Creating progress bars

My project is going to use extensive use of progress bars. Currently I'm using a tiled background with mix of events with an object specific to each need for it.

Here's my current code:

Is there a way I can create/destroy these objects as I need them and/or simplify their usage so I don't have to repeat this block for every progress bar?

I'm kind of a noob at programming, but couldn't you make this block a function or an array and then just use call?

The key is to use instance variables on the progress object. That way you can just alter the counter that controls the progress, and use all of the same code for the display.

I'm using Timers here, but they are just an means to an end.

I tried to look at your sample, Blackhornet, but it says I need the Chrome Console plugin and that plugin is no longer offered. Is it possible for you to make a version that doesn't require that plugin?

My mistake.

ProgressTimerSample_noCC.capx

ChromeConsole is 3rd party: scirra.com/forum/log-text-objects-to-chrome-console_topic47859.html

Thanks Blackhornet! I made my own version of the code here:

I'm not sure of a site as easy as imgur is for posting the capx file.
