How would I add a minute timer for my game countdown?
I am currently using a loop to countdown the amount of time left in my game. The current amount of time a round in my game lasts for is 600 seconds or 10 mins. How would I make it countdown from 10:00 instead of 600?

This script is very short because it is SO easy;
also set; "ResetOnSpawn" enabled in the current screengui you are editing
01 | local timer = script.Parent |
02 | local minutes = 2 |
03 | local seconds = 19 |
04 |
05 | repeat |
06 | if seconds <= 0 then |
07 | minutes = minutes - 1 |
08 | seconds = 59 |
09 | else |
10 | seconds = seconds - 1 |
11 | end |
12 | if seconds <= 9 then |
13 | timer.Text = tostring(minutes)..":0"..tostring(seconds) |
14 | else |
15 | timer.Text = tostring(minutes)..":"..tostring(seconds) |
16 | end |
17 | wait(1) |
18 | until minutes <= 0 and seconds <= 0 |
Explanation
If the seconds is smaller than 0 then the minutes is equal to itself - 1 else the seconds will subtract by themselves
and you know the rest
