1.)
In this tutorial I will show you how to create a timer.
To keep things consistant I will provide an example
of by puting a textbox on the stage and giving it an
instance name of "timeString". Then give it some variables
and actions of how to increment the timer. The output
will look like this Time: 1:35.
var startTime:int = getTimer();
addEventListener(Event.ENTER_FRAME, showClock);
function showClock(event:Event){
//ms passed
var timePassed:int = getTimer()-startTime;
//computer minutes and seconds
var seconds:int = Math.floor(timePassed/1000);
var minutes:int = Math.floor(seconds/60);
seconds -= minutes*60;
//convert clock to string
var timeString:String = "Timer " + minutes + " : " +
String(seconds + 100).substr(1,2);
//show in text field'
timeDisplay.text = timeString;
}
