Countdown Timer Documentation
Whether it’s counting down to your next Big Event or the opening of the next Big Movie/Concert or the next election, you will be prepared with this handy, simple-to-use gizmo.
Getting Started
- Rez it and have a simple countdown timer to some event.
- Right click and edit the timer and open the SETTINGS notecard from the comments tab.
- Enter the Countdown Time in the SETTINGS notecard to list the date/time of the event to count down to.
- Use the following format: YYYY/MM/DD HH:MM (Hour is 24-hour format).
Advanced Setup
- Write your own scripts to do more advanced things with the device. If you’re not a scripter, this next part is going to be tricky.
- The countdown is controlled via linked message, specifically the ‘num’ parameter of the linked message.
- The enclosed ‘Coundown Controller - Simple Example’ should include all of the information a scripter needs to write their own scripts.
- The ‘Countdown Controller - Running Example’ is the script actually running the clock.
