I tried to place the timed choice’s clock (like in these two images above), however it won’t work.
I tried using Dara’s Guides to fix but the clock won’t appear.

replace the ‘spot’ by your choice line 1704 to ‘to’.

[timed:#:timer to % x y]

I tried that but the clock didn’t appear

can you spot direct your timed overlay again pls

I don’t understand what you’re trying to say…?

Oh I’m sorry! I think your spot ‘2.000 65 468’ isn’t valid. When you scroll down on the error it will show you valid ones like ‘1.5 160 250’.

I don’t think it’s the case because I tried fixing it by copy Dara’s line into my script. It still hidden somehow.

i checked it and it didn’t show an error but didn’t show up as you said. When I changed it to

choice [timed:top:7] it worked fine! Is that okay with you or do you need that coördinate?

That’ll work just as good! I wonder if it is a glitch, though.
But thank you! You really put effort in helping me out!! :sob: :sob: :smiling_face_with_three_hearts: :smiling_face_with_three_hearts:
