Im usless with c-script, so I hope you after a lite-c result. USAGE: (TESTED) ALWAYS needs to called with VAR variables in all 3 parameters. First call starts the timer, second call stops it and injects the elapsed time into the 3 var parameters. IF there are values in the parameters VARs as first-call, these are used as a starting-point by the timer. So you can do var HH=0, MM=0, SS=0;
StopWatch(HH, MM, SS); //timer started at ZEROs
...
StopWatch(HH, MM, SS); //Stop timer and HH, MM, SS = elapsed time
StopWatch(HH, MM, SS); //Restart timer at HH, MM, SS elapsed time (NO time lost)
...
StopWatch(HH, MM, SS); //Stop timer and HH, MM, SS = elapsed time STOPWATCH Function itself void StopWatch(var* Hours, var* Minutes, var* Seconds)
{
static var hours, minutes, seconds, running=0;
if(running==0)
{ //START StopWatch
running = 1;
hours=*Hours; minutes=*Minutes; seconds=*Seconds;
while(running)
{
wait(1);
seconds += (timer()/1000000);
if(seconds>=60)
{
minutes += integer(seconds/60);
seconds = cycle(seconds,0,60);
if(minutes>=60)
{
hours += integer(minutes/60);
minutes = cycle(minutes,0,60);
}
}
}
return;
}
//STOP StopWatch
*Hours = hours; *Minutes = minutes; *Seconds = seconds;
running=0;
return;
}If this is needed in C-script, I'll need you to let me know, and I'll need more time...

No problems, BUT, take a look at the time-calculations flowing
from seconds into hours. It's right, but Im sure there is a better way.
It just that its 4am here and I am desperately tired, but just cant sleep.
So I code......

You could also use total_secs: http://www.conitec.net/beta/atotal_secs.htmJust save it to a var when the stopwatch is started and when you stop the stopwatch you subtract the stored value from the current one and you get the passed seconds. Which you can then translate into hours/minutes/seconds. Other than that you can also use "wait(-1)" to wait one second.

No problems, BUT, take a look at the time-calculations flowing
from seconds into hours. It's right, but Im sure there is a better way. There is, and it's super simple: void StopWatch(var* Hours, var* Minutes, var* Seconds)
{
static var hours, minutes, seconds, running=0;
if(running==0)
{ //START StopWatch
running = 1;
hours=*Hours; minutes=*Minutes; seconds=*Seconds;
while(running)
{
wait(1);
seconds += (timer()/1000000);
minutes += integer(seconds / 60);
seconds = seconds % 60;
hours += integer(minutes / 60);
minutes = minutes % 60;
}
return;
}
//STOP StopWatch
*Hours = hours; *Minutes = minutes; *Seconds = seconds;
running=0;
return;
}No more if statements needed  Just so beginners understand, the mathematical operator "%" is called modulus. It calculates the remainder of a division operation. Lets say we have a pile of 20 cookies. We want to serve the cookies at a party on plates, where each plate can hold 3 cookies. 20 / 3 equals 6.666666_, so we know there will be cookies left over, but how many? 20 % 3 equals 2, so there will be 6 plates with 3 cookies each and 1 plate with just 2 cookies. You'd better eat that serving before-hand... you don't want an upset guest!

Thats what I thought, I always forget the % operator...

yeah, its a good one to keep in mind  another option was using Gamestudio's built in "cycle" function: which wraps x to be between a and b, so in this case: minutes += integer(seconds / 60);
seconds = wrap(seconds, 0, 60);
