Just another timer problem -_-'

[Cxyda]

hi there,

- Is there a possibility to create a timer which counts up ? or
- maybe a "easy" way to check the difference between the start time of a countown timer and the value the timer has been stopped ?

i can't solve this problem -_-' my only idea to avoid this leak of skill ;-) is to do a loop which counts i + 1 and waits a sec to do this again !


if anyone wants to know what i want to do :

i want to creat a function which ckecks the time between the first and the last killed creep of a player. The elapsed time has to be converted to integer type ....

you need variables:
variable name - variable type - initial value
first creep - boolean - false
last creep - boolean - false
check timer - timer - none
check integer - interger - 0

first trigger
Event - a unit dies
Conditions - (owner of (dying unit)) equal to Neutrall hostile
First creep is equal to false
Actions: set first creep = true
start check timer as a repeating timer that will expire in 1.00 seconds.
set check timer = (last started timer)

second trigger
Event - a unit dies
Conditions - (owner of (dying unit)) equal to Neutrall hostile
(number of units in (units owned by Neutral hostile)) equal to 0
Actions - Set last creep equal to true

third trigger
event - check timer expires
if last creep is equal to false then set check integer = (check integer) + 1 else do nothing

if last creepis equal to true run fourth trigger (checking conditions) else do nothing

fourth trigger
event - none (is run by another action)
conditions - last creep is equal to true
Pause check timer
set check integer = (check integer) + 1]


now the integer at the end is the time the player took to kill all the creeps (at least i think because i haven't tested it myself. if it doesn't work just reply)
