Detecting "TimeManager" Time for score?

Hi

I am using the "TimeManager" Plugin.

Is there a way I can say: for example:

If the time is <00:05:000 - Add 500 to Score?

That's a question you should have asked directly in the TimeManager topic.

I guess you can use a system condition "Compare two values" and use the "HHMMSS" expressions as the first field and your estimated time in the second one.

I'm not sure if my method is 100% accurate, but here is how I do timers:

1. create global variable Timer

2. Every tick > add dt to Timer

then for the score bit

3. System Time = 5 | Add 500 to Score

edit: seems like my method isn't working, i'll look into it

Thank you. I appreciate it. I saw it wasn't working, so I did post in the other thread.

strange thing is this is working in my game, but not in a freshly made file

Here's a little workaround:

If you don't understand it please ask questions :)

Thanl you. I will take a look and get back to you. <img src="smileys/smiley1.gif" border="0" align="middle" />

bleh. I have to install the newer version.

I answered Pixiefingers question in the main thread for Time Manager, but I will post the answer here too, in case someone else is wondering:

Call on the "GetTimeValue" expression, this expression will give you the current value of the counter (in milliseconds). With this value, you can check if its below a given value, in your example, 5 seconds would be 5000 (5 seconds al� 1000 milliseconds). And if the "GetTimeValue" expression is smaller than that, then add 500 to score.
