Timer countdown and waves problem

[Gnoren]

Hey guys, I've got an question.. again.

How to I create a timer that starts from 2 minutes and counts down to 0?

And how do I do, when I've got monster waves that are attacking, and want to change monsters when the timer reaches 0, and then it resets to 2 again and starts over, going on forever with new waves.

Just use:

• Events
  • Every 120 seconds of game time
• Actions
  • Set Wave = Wave + 1
  • Create monsters depending on which wave it is
  • If Wave = 1 then create noob monsters
  • If Wave = 2 then ...

As you can see, every 120 seconds, a wave integer will be increased, allowing you to know what wave it is and create monsters depending on that.

That wasn't really what I needed. Need waves that spawn 1 unit each 2 seconds.

I see.

Well, it's pretty similar.

• Wave Update
• Events
  • Every 120.0 seconds of game time
• Actions
  • Set Wave = Wave + 1

• Monster Spawn
• Events
  • Every 2.0 seconds of game time
• Actions
  • Create monsters depending on the current wave
