Hi !
I want to make a program that will SendKeys with a countdown, that would be turned on by pressing 1 and turned off by pressing 2.I know pretty everything and i almost made it, however i dont know how to make the countdown.I have tried this:
countdwn timer has set interval to 1000 (1 second)
It works, however when i start the program and press 1 in notepad (i know how to make hotkeys) it types the message succesfully but it doesnt add 1 to "count" and the message looks always like this:
Countdown: 1 :)
Countdown: 1 :)
Countdown: 1 :)
etc...
How can i fix this so it will be a working countdown ?
