I know it's a newb question, but I can't seem to make the leaderboard display a variable timer that updates according to what the timer variable is. I'm trying to set it up to say "Time Remaining: " then display the timer after using two different columns. My problem is I can't figure out how to display a timer. I would appreciate any help!
I might have misunderstood what you were asking for, but: You could write it using Combine Text Strings. One for Time Remaining: and one with convert time into text or something like that, where you enter the name of your timer variable. Maybe that helps.
remember to update the leaderboard every time the time changes
(think it would be easier to add a couple of timer windows since those update automatic)
@Jackolas:
I can get it to update, but what I can't find out is how to display the timer itself, like there is a convert timer to string function, but It only lets me select values not variables.
This is exactly what I want. With timers and leaderboards the screen gets fill up so I would like to have the time left in a timer display in the title of the leaderboard.
Timer Update

Leaderboard - Set leaderboard item text at column 1 and row 2 to (Text((Remaining time of wave Timer)) with Any Precision decimal places)
( in the section where you choose what to name the row or column select funtion and after that selct convert to real)
in the convert to real choose your timer and set it to remaining time of the timer)
