Chat Command/Count down Timer

[Myzteryz]

Ok the triggers should explain everything....

One Hour Game
    Events
        Player - Player 1 (Red) types a chat message containing -1 as An exact match
    Conditions
    Actions
        Game - Display to (All players) for 3.00 seconds the text: 1 Hour Mode has bee...
        Trigger - Turn on One Hour Mode <gen>
        Trigger - Turn off (This trigger)
        Trigger - Turn off One Hour 30 Min <gen>

One Hour Mode
    Events
            
    Conditions
    Actions
        Countdown Timer - Create a timer window for Timer with title Game End In...
        Countdown Timer - Start Timer as a One-shot timer that will expire in 3600.00 seconds
        Trigger - Turn on Victory1 <gen>

The One Hour Mode trigger is initialy off...

What my problem is...when Player 1 red types out -1...everything goes well except the window timer doesn't appear...so I tried this...

        Trigger - Turn on One Hour Mode <gen>
        Trigger - Turn off (This trigger)
        Trigger - Turn off One Hour 30 Min <gen>

One Hour Mode
    Events
       [U]Player - Player 1 (Red) types a chat message containing -1 as An exact match[/U]
    Conditions
    Actions
        Countdown Timer - Create a timer window for Timer with title Game End In...
        Countdown Timer - Start Timer as a One-shot timer that will expire in 3600.00 seconds
        Trigger - Turn on Victory1 <gen>

And see that underlines part...thats where I made the changes...but then now i have to typ out -1 two times so it works....ne idea how I would make it work with typing it 1 time

WOW that took me alittle while, but I found the problem:

The first two triggers you had will work, but you need an event for the second one. If you want it to happen instently do an elapsed time 0.01 sec. That sounds like it wont work but the elapsed time does not start untell the trigger is on, so it should work.

doesn't work...

tried making it 1.00 also..but still won't work..

 

[Surferkid993]

If you want them both to have the same event why not put them both as the same trigger. Or do the second one and put it as initialy on.
