Hiya
I want to make a scoreboard for my flash mini game but so that the time remaining becomes the score (so the quicker you do it the more points you get!).
I have created my timer as a movie clip with a dynamic textbox with the variable name timer. This is then dragged onto the main timeline and given the instance name of countdown,
The following code makes it work:
Then to freeze the timer on the game over screen i have the code:
I want to somehow put this "frozen" time into a variable which can be sent to the scoreboard. Any ideas on how I could go about doing this?
thanks a lot

countdown.onEnterFrame = function() {
this.timer = int(30-(getTimer()-startTime)/1000);
if (Number(this.timer) == 0) {
gotoAndPlay(108);
}
timer = 0;
}

Code:
countdown.onEnterFrame = function() {
stop();
};
