timer and kill counter for pvp game

[prisma bridge]

Hi! I'm making a pvp and I can't figure out how to get kills to show up on the game board to see who's winning.

I also made a timer but for some reason it goes 2 seconds at a time only when I reset the room, once I touch the circuit it starts running normally

This is the mechanism I used

1. Name your variables
2. Set timer to Timer + Delta Time
3. Dont use Cv1 game rules

If you have a custom combat system, you can record your own stats via local int variables, you can then add your text onto a custom scoreboard

[prisma bridge]

What do you mean by "set timer to Timer+delta time?

[graceful dragon]

By setting the variable to itself + delta time, it will go up by 1 per second

"1 second per second"

[prisma bridge]

Oh

So, delete everything else?

[prisma bridge]

Alright, I see what you mean (I think) but I'm trying to get it to count down, not up

Do I just do subtract instead?

[graceful dragon]

Then set it to itself - delta time

[prisma bridge]

I don't think I can subteact the int variable timer with the delta time

Am I missing something?

@graceful dragon

[graceful dragon]

You shouldnt be using an int variable for a timer

[prisma bridge]

The HUD element needs an int for the number input

Maybe if I put the timer outside the HUD?

Like on top of the map

For all to see

[graceful dragon]

Ok

Divide the timer value by the max timer value (If default timer value is 60 seconds, divide by 60)
Current Timer / Max Time = Percentage of time left

Multiply this value by 1,000,000 and then ceil to int

Set the max value of the HUD to 1,000,000
Set the value of the HUD to the ceil to int value

Tried following your instructions but didn't quite work, timer did go down but it was from 90.000 (I believe?) And went down rapidly.

Battery ran out just as I finished but I managed to save to see what I did wrong

Tried using upper middle HUD but it said there was no max value for it so just settled for upper right

[graceful dragon]

Primary and Secondary should work

they are bar values in the middle of the screen

I'd use secondary, its smaller

[prisma bridge]

Ah!

It's not a number I can show, it's the value on the slider

Alright

I can live with that

Oh and on the kill counter side of things

I don't have a custom combat system, it's just normal paintball guns and normal PvP game chip

[graceful dragon]

yeah gross bad

make custom game rules and combat

you dont need custom guns

just make custom combat (Health, Shield, Max Health)

[prisma bridge]

🙁

But it's hard to learn things

Ok for future reference, I found this

Gonna use it once I charge my headset

[prisma bridge]

Yeah no, I can't do custom combat

I need simple, easy to digest images
