If I have a Day counter... 30 ticks in a day - 1 tick = 15 seconds

can I do something like
#var daytimevar {30} {#wa 15000 {#add daytimervar -1}} {0=reset}

i know the wait timer wont work but what can I do with that?
where every 15 sec -1 to timer...? and reset when it hits 0

thanks

This should do it:

#ALARM {-15} {#add daytimer -1;#IF (@daytimer = 0) {#var daytimer 0}}

I was wanting to run the daytimer from 30 down to 0

it just seems to be counting negatives
somethngs fishy:P

You need to initialize the daytimer to 30 before starting that alarm, and "#var daytimer 0" should be "#var daytimer 30"

Sorry, it seems my ability to pay attention to details had lapsed.

Pattern:
~[Time~]~: It is now the day of &%wdayvar~!

Value:
#VAR daytimer 30
#ALARM {-15} {#add daytimer -1;#IF (@daytimer = 0)}

or even
#VAR daytimer 30
#ALARM {-15} {#add daytimer -1;#IF (@daytimer = 0) {#var daytimer 30}}

is not working....

triggers the day name and the 30 count but does not decrease or reset.....???

when it triggers the #var daytimer 30 should be the reset right???
