Trigger Help Please!

alright... trigger help needed (you're gonna see a lot of these topics comin up). I've created a timer window, the title is displayed in the window... but the timer itself isn't there. What do I need to do to make it visible?

Open a triger editor and delete the melee trigger. Create a variable press F4 than ctrl + b click on new variable and tipe in the name(whatever you want) and select in type "tymer".

Create a trigger and name it whatever you want. Go under event and do time elapse in 10.00 seconds.

Now go to the actions, and go under countdown timer - Start timer. This is where your going to use use your variable you made, click on the red item(pop up window) and select you variable,it will select your variable.Leave the one-shot
like "one-shot",then go on 30.00 and make it whatever you want. Now go under action again, and go under countdown timer - create timer window There u will see the red item, click on it, an give your countdown timer window a name e.g. Victory, Now go under Last started timer, and choose your variable at the top tab, dont forge to click it!!!
:!:

Now make another trigger hotkey(ctrl + t). Now go under events, and make a new under time - timer expires and in the blue item find your variable, and click ok. Now go under action and selest game-Victory

is this how you done it :?:

Advanced - Create advanced timer with Title [Timer] colored ffffff lasting 5.00 that is a One-shot timer and Execute Action (-------- Something here --------) when it expires. Show timer window True

thats on world editor unlimited and works good and u can use the action inside the same trigger, ive been trying to get the regular timer to work but it wont for some reason lol
