Timer Stopped
What it does
Timer Stopped changes a task when a named timer stops and its resulting time passes the comparison you set.
Required item compatibility
This is a timer event. Add it through an item that offers the Tasks panel, then use the exact same timer name in the timer effect.
Setup
- Add Timer Stopped and choose the task transition.
- Enter the timer name exactly as it is used in Start Timer and Stop Timer.
- Choose Faster or Slower and enter the comparison time in seconds.
- Add the success or failure effects to the destination state.
Settings
| Setting | What it means |
|---|---|
| When Timer Finished With The Name | Exact timer name. |
| And The Resulting Time Is | Faster or Slower than the comparison. |
| Than the time (in seconds) | Comparison time. |
| Can Run On Start | Allows evaluation when the flow starts where the available setting permits it. |
Tiny example
When race-clock stops faster than 60 seconds, Fast Finish changes from Active to Completed and reveals the winner sign.
Test and troubleshoot
- Timer names must match exactly across the timer effects and this trigger.
- Test a deliberately easy comparison first.
- Use Countdown Timer Finished when the event you need is simply a countdown reaching its end.
