Start countdown timer on a button press

[sebbo1473]

Hello!
Im currently suffering, cannot find any understandable and matching script for my case. I want to have a timer which will apper on my screen as a GUITexture as soon as some event will happen in my scene, in my case I want it to happen after I push a key “e”. I want it to count down from 60 to 0 and then stop and trigger some other events in my scene.
I am not so good in it and I cannot find very simple script for that. All of them are complicated and I can’t basicly attach them.
Can someone help please?

Something like this?

var timerGO : GameObject;
var timer : GUIText;
var ready : bool;
var countDownSeconds : float;
var startTime : float;

function Start () 
{
    ready = true;
    countDownSeconds = 60;
	timer = timerGO.transform.gameObject.AddComponent(GUIText);
	timer.name = "Timer";
	timer.transform.position = Vector.zero;
}

function Update ()
{
    if (Input.GetButton("e") && ready)
    {
        startTime = Time.time;
        timerMode();
        ready = false;
    }
}

//Timer Mode
//60 seconds to achieve your best
function timerMode ()
{
	var guiTime = 0;

    guiTime = Time.time - startTime;
	restSeconds = countDownSeconds - (guiTime);	

	if (guiTime >= 60f) {
	        //Do what you want
	}

	timer.text = restSeconds.toString();
}

Ohh no, I forgot to mention, I use javascript. I tried and unfortunately it doesn’t work… Is it possible for you to somehow convert the script in to js?
Thank you!
