I realize this is for serious support and whatnot, but I'm not really sure what all ZMud can do, and how to do it. I'd like to know if anyone would know how I would go about making a trigger that does the following:

Upon receiving a certain string of text an 8 second timer that is displayed at the bottom of the screen above where you enter text is displayed and counts down.

Because I have this ability on one of the muds I play that activates after 8 seconds of initially using it, and I want to be able to time it just right and use it when I would like to instead of counting in my head.

Your help would be greatly appreciated...and if you don't help, I'd understand that too.

Thanks in advance.

#TR {a certain string of text} {#VAR timer 8;#MATH counter (%secs + 8000);#T+ countdown}
#ALA countdown *1 {#MATH timer ((@counter + 500 - %secs)/1000);#IF (@timer < 1) {#T- countdown;#VAR timer 0}}
#ST {Countdown: @timer}
