Here is a countdown, inspired by this function: Show text

_timeout = { params [ ["_time", 30, [0]], ["_colour", "#FFFFFF", [""]] ]; private _timeout = time + _time; private ["_text", "_remainingTime", "_timeFormat"]; RscFiringDrillTime_done = false; 1 cutRsc ["RscFiringDrillTime", "PLAIN"]; while { time < _timeout } do { _remainingTime = _timeout - time; _timeFormat = [_remainingTime, "MM:SS.MS", true] call BIS_fnc_secondsToString; _text = format ["<t align='left' color='%1'><img image='%2' />%3:%4<t size='0.8'>.%5</t>", _colour, "A3\Modules_F_Beta\data\FiringDrills\timer_ca", _timeFormat select 0, _timeFormat select 1, _timeFormat select 2]; RscFiringDrillTime_current = parseText _text; sleep 0.01; }; _timeFormat = [0, "MM:SS.MS", true] call BIS_fnc_secondsToString; RscFiringDrillTime_current = parseText format ["<t align='left' color='%1'><img image='%2' />%3:%4<t size='0.8'>.%5</t>", _colour, "A3\Modules_F_Beta\data\FiringDrills\timer_ca", _timeFormat select 0, _timeFormat select 1, _timeFormat select 2]; sleep 4; RscFiringDrillTime_done = true; };
