KillTimer doesn't work - PeanutButter - 22.01.2017

I'm trying to make a countdown timer but for some reason the timer won't stop.

PHP код:
new counter = 4;
new CountTimer; 
PHP код:
CountTimer = SetTimer("CountDown", 1000, true); 
PHP код:
forward CountDown();
public CountDown()
{
    foreach(Joiners, i)
    {
        printf("counter = %i", counter);
        new countstr[128];
        if(counter != 0)
        {
            format(countstr, sizeof(countstr), "Game starts in: %i", counter);
            GameTextForPlayer(i, countstr, 1000, 4);
            counter--;
        }
        else
        {
            GameTextForPlayer(i, "START!", 1000, 4);
            KillTimer(CountTimer);
        }
    }
    return 1;
} 
The timer doesn't stop and just keeps printing 0

Код:
new string[128];
format(string, 128, "%d", CountDownFromAmount);
GameTextForAll(string, 990, 5);
Код:
new CountDownFromAmount;
forward CountDownTimer();
Код:
CountDownFromAmount = 480; // 8min.
SetTimer("CountDownTimer", 999, 1);
Код:
public CountDownTimer()
{
	CountDownFromAmount--;
	if (CountDownFromAmount == 0)
	{
		GameTextForAll("End of the round!!", 3000, 5);
	}
	return 1;
}

I tried everything but nothing works. I even tried it with multiple countdown includes. It is probably because it is a filterscript. What could be interfering?

Код:
new counter = 4; 
new CountTimer;  

CountTimer = SetTimer("CountDown", 1000, true);  

forward CountDown(); 
public CountDown() 
{ 
        printf("counter = %i", counter); 
        new countstr[64]; 
        if(counter != 0) 
        { 
            format(countstr, sizeof(countstr), "Game starts in: %i", counter); 
            GameTextForAll( countstr, 1000, 4);  
        } 
        else 
        { 
            GameTextForAll("START!", 1000, 4); 
            KillTimer(CountTimer); 
        }
        counter--;
        return 1; 
}
if you using it in any cmd that timer than update counter there 4. before that timer start

Re: KillTimer doesn't work - PeanutButter - 23.01.2017

I found a way to temporarily fix it, just by making a variable to check if the timer should be active or not.
But this is probably not a good way to do it because the timer keeps running.

PHP код:
if(countactive == 1)
{
// code of the timer in here
}
