Help!

I am in desperate need of a countdown timer for a flash concentration game. A timeline based timer is no good and neither is flash five actionscript, it has to be flash four. Any help would be hugely appreciated! Thanks.

The easy way:

if your main MC runs at 15 frames per sec. (fpc):

create a MC with a 16 frames:
Frame1:
time=0;

frame16
time=time+1; ( when time=1 means 15s passed,Time=2 eq 30s )
if (time = 1,2 whatever )
put the actions here.
goto and stop 1.reset counter.
else
goto and play frame 2.

when you restart the time play the movie from frame 1.

Thanks for that, works better than how I was doing it. Unfortunately I think it's more of a processor thing than a bandwidth thing so there's not much to be done about it...
