Really basic question is countdown -= Time.deltaTime; the same as countdown = countdown - Time.deltaTime; Im new to coding so i don’t know. Please help.

Another handy shortcut operator for incrementing and decrementing is the ++ or – operator…
x++;
y–;
is the same as
x = x + 1, or x += 1
y = y - 1 or y–
