Help Request: Timer Extension Verse Script Issues

Development Programming & Scripting

Pounding my head against the table lol. This can’t be that hard.

I’m trying to develop a simple Verse script that adds time to a timer device when triggered. Like in the old racing games where you got bonus time when you reached certain checkpoints.

The basic functionality would be:

  1. Connect to an existing timer device
  2. Add a configurable amount of time when triggered
  3. Be activated by a trigger device (button, etc.)

Any tips? I’ve review the fortnite.digest documentation but am not having any luck.

You should just be able to increase the timer duration for the player:

SecondsToAdd := 5.0
YourTimerDevice.SetActiveDuration(YourTimerDevice.GetActiveDuration(TargetAgent) + SecondsToAdd , TargetAgent)

Will give it a try, thanks so much!
