Got a question.

Is it impossible or very difficult to code a stopwatch type timer?

Something with start and stop buttons? I ask because with the timer I am using, when I want to restart it at 0, I have to reload the entire UI, some people that may take a little while (depending on machine) in my case, after the reload, I am already about 15 seconds (or so) in the timer. There is also no way to stop the timer once I am done timeing something.

I normally time stuff like how long does it take to get from point A to point B, or timing something new and waiting for it to pop. Having a stop watch style with start and stop buttons would be great!

I also use it to determine how much XP I am getting per minute/hour.

Thanks!

Tom
