Is there any way to have the clock function not start at the beginning of a program but at any point. i.e. since i am makin a track game i want the clock to start when the user selects that game from the menu. right now the problem is the clock starts with that program. thanks |

If you make if a process then it will start when ever you call it var time :int process timer loop clock (time) end loop end timer put "Put i will wait 1 sec b4 starting the clock" delay (1000) fork timer hope this is what u want! |

var t1, t2:int whenever you want to start the timing t1:=Time.Elapsed blah, blah, blah(the code, for the jumping) when you are finished, or the code triggers it, t2:=Time.Elapsed the total time passed is: t2 minus t1 |

oh, btw, do your best to avoid processes, they are slow, not timed well enough, and take up alot of memory, use it only when you are playing background music. |
