What are the requirements?
It needs to be automated, i.e. count down on it's own when activated, and preferably not spam the chat log.&nbsp; I'd prefer to have a settable the time so it can be used for 15 sec, 30 sec, etc. It looks like the one linked had an token that (among other things) spun, and kept the counter on itself. It throws an error when I try to run it, and for all I know its a simple fix, but I know nothing about R20 API.

Some more questions: What do you want it to do when the time expires? Does it need to be visible all the time? Should players be able to see it? Do you want to have more than one running at a time?
Sorry, not sure why my browser didn't notify me. I'm OK with anything from a simple "times up" to a sound. It would be helpful so the players knew where they stood, but a (example 30 sec counter) 30, 20, 10,9,8... would also work. Yes, but it could be an option? I have no need for more than one at a time myself, but if you could that's not a bad thing.
Any possible luck on this or additional thoughts?
