Timer help, display seconds counting down. - Outbreak - 31.01.2009

I've set a 30 second timer. I want to display the amount of seconds as it ticks down to zero, its a SetTimerEx so i only want the seconds ticking down to display for the players the timer is running for, not for everyone in the server.

I want the first 20 seconds to be white and the last 10 seconds to be red. How do i do this?

Create a public variable and put it on the seconds you want (30)
example: Then create a timer of 1 second that take every second 1 - 30
then show the textdraw/gametext to then it work

I'm wanting to do it the same way as its done for the /countdown command.

If thats possible?

Just one timer showing each second as it goes...

That's what he said to do. You just want it done for you.

Want it done for me? Pfff don't waste my topic with uninformative answers.

I've already done it that way, wondering if theres another way.

What's the need for another way? To show on just that certain player's screen.

emo style /kill

I'm just wanting to dislplay each number as timer runs.

For a tdm, where they have 30 seconds to select weapons from a menu when then spawn in the tdm area.

I think I figured out two shorter ways though, so I'll give each a try.

better give them 3 secs to choose the weapons..not 30

I just posted a snippet in the "GameModes" sub in the "Usefull Snippets" thread which will help you.
