Timer and sub-application problems

Welcome to our brand new Clickteam Community Hub! We hope you will enjoy using the new features, which we will be further expanding in the coming months.

A few features including Passport are unavailable initially whilst we monitor stability of the new platform, we hope to bring these online very soon. Small issues will crop up following the import from our old system, including some message formatting, translation accuracy and other things.

Thank you for your patience whilst we've worked on this and we look forward to more exciting community developments soon!

  • Hey guys. I'm having a little issue getting my timer to work. Basically I've got an event that makes a timer open up. I'm trying to cut down on the amount of clutter I have on each frame so I have it set up as a subapp that contains a "date and time" item. Basically it works like this: Button is pressed and sets a global value (time), creates the sub app, grabs a global value that's been set for the timer and then start the countdown. For some reason whenever I try this with the subapp it won't grab the global value. It works fine when I set the timer up in the original frame, however.

    Currently I'm trying it this way:
    Start of Frame
    >Set count down to ( Global Value A )
    >Start Countdown

    Seems like it should be pretty straight forward to me or am I missing something?
