Timer with an offset If you want to use an offset so that the gameplay timer only starts when the game actually begins as against when the Flash Movie starts e.g. you may want to read a Splash screen or the rules of the game then this should help.
Running Total Sometimes you may want to keep a record of how long a character has been present in a particular location - In this movie you use the up and down keys to move the character onto the road - the timer stores how long the character has been present on the road - if you alternate between standing on the grass and the road, the timer will update the running total everytime the character leaves the road - a running total is displayed in a dynamic text box.Don't forget to click the box to give it focus if you are viewing the preview swf file online.
