[F8] Count up timer

[zombie1234]

Hello,

I am trying to find a way to script a count up timer. The timer would have seconds(no milliseconds), minutes, and hour fields. This timer will be implemented into a game to show how long the person has been playing it. I would like it to start as soon as the .swf is opened.

Thank you for any insight!

Something like this, mayhaps? I did check to see if the hour thing actually works, just to be sure, and it does. I cranked it up to 120 FPS and waited a few minutes.

EDIT: I still had it on 120 FPS, fixed it now.

here's one i made, the coding is a bit more current, just add this to the first frame of a new movie to see it in action. If you have any problems getting it working within your game lemme know and I'll help make sense of it good luck!

var seconds:Number = 1;
var minutes:Number = 0;
var hours:Number = 0;

this.createTextField("timer_txt", this.getNextHighestDepth(), 0, 0, 100, 22);
function updateTimer():Void {
	 seconds++;
	 if(seconds > 59){
		 minutes++;
		 seconds = 0;
	 }
	 if(minutes > 59){
		 hours++;
		 minutes = 0;
	 }
	 timer_txt.text = hours + ":" + minutes + ":" + seconds;
}

var intervalID:Number = setInterval(updateTimer, 1000);
