[F8] Countdown Timer Triggers and Event...possible?

Hi,

I have a timer counting down.

When it hits :30 I need a warning sound and message.

Not sure how to do this. I thought some kind of listener

Below is the code

Thanks

Code:

---

function countDown() {
        if (Math.round(outputMin)==0 && Math.round(outputSec)==0 || chk==1){
                clearInterval(timer);
        }else {
                if (outputSec != "00") {
                        outputSec = Math.round(outputSec) - 1;
                        //trace(output);
                }else {
                        outputSec = 59;
                        outputMin = Math.round(outputMin) -1;
                }
                if (outputSec <= 9 && outputSec > 0) {
                        outputSec ="0" + outputSec;
       
                }else if (outputSec == 0) {
                        outputSec = "00";
                        gotoAndPlay(3);
                }
        }
}

chk=0;
stop();

Could you set your timer = to a variable, then check if the variable is = to 30, then have your action. Display your msg in a dynamic txtbox Something as simple as:

Code:

---


outputMin=1
outputSec=60
//all of your time code to countdown
if (outputMin=0 && outputSec<=30){
warning.text="Warning, your running out of time"
}

Thanks for the post.

I should have mentioned that AS is something that I am still tryng to get my head around. That said, I am not really sure how to add your solution to the code.

If you have time to show me that would be great.

Thanks again.

I'm sure that there is more to your code and I don't feel like completing this so I can test it, but I would guess that putting it like this should work.

Code:

---

function countDown() {
        if (Math.round(outputMin)==0 && Math.round(outputSec)==0 || chk==1){
                clearInterval(timer);
        }else {
                if (outputSec != "00") {
                        outputSec = Math.round(outputSec) - 1;
                        //trace(output);
                }else {
                        outputSec = 59;
                        outputMin = Math.round(outputMin) -1;
                }
                        if (outputMin=0 && outputSec<=30){
                                  warning="Warning, your running out of time"//displays the warning message in a dynamic textbox with the variable name "warning"
                          }
                if (outputSec <= 9 && outputSec > 0) {
                        outputSec ="0" + outputSec;
       
                }else if (outputSec == 0) {
                        outputSec = "00";
                        gotoAndPlay(3);
                }
        }
}

chk=0;
stop();

You have to set up a dynamic textbox with a variable name of warning for the message to display, Make sure that the textbox is long enough. That should work, but I can't say for sure without the rest of the code or seeing how you have the countdown running.

Thanks!

It works.
