Not able to use Timer for 60 seconds
Hi,
I am make a game in which a ball bounces and the player has to touch the ball with the cursor. I want the game to stop after 60 seconds. I am able to do the bouncing and touching part but not the time limit part. How can I get the program to stop after 60 sec? Thank you.

I'm taking a break from Scratch until 2.0 comes out. Any messages sent between then and now probably won't be read - sorry.

Yeah. Just make a variable called Timer that goes down by one every second until it reaches zero.

That's extremely inaccurate. Use the timer.
