RE: Second Countdown
Personal messages can't be updated every second. I'd suggest having it in minutes.

Nope. That only does hours OR days as in a context of 'real time'

i want it be able to display like.. 6000000000 minutes to ______ rarther than it displaying e.g 2 Minutes, (even when the hour + day tags have been removed )

It would be like that script above where the tick option boxes are.. being able to tick days and hours of so it just counts in minutes and nothing else?

Does anyone understand what  i mean like lol :?:

RE: Second Countdown
Yes, I understand. Well, it sounds complex to add an easy-to-understand interface for such thing in a countdown script, but it's very well doable to program the functionality. Maybe I can add tags like %th for "total hours" and %ts for "total minutes", but it'd get very difficult to add functionality for "X hours and Y seconds", with Y also including the minutes.

As my script (Countdown Live) is getting pretty outdated and I don't seem to care opening those project files any soon (hey, we don't get paid for scripting, you know! :P), I'm afraid you'd have to look for another script or talk to another developer if you need this really really quick. But it may be a point to think about when I'd want to resurrect my script one day. :)
