Resetting Timer

From GMod Wiki

This is my first wiki page so it will most likely suck. I am experienced with wiremod though so my contraptions are reliable.

What will Happen?

 When the Button is pressed the timer will start to run, counting up to whichever number you select!

Materials

 1.A Timer (under "Gate - Time") 
 2.A "Constant value" of 3, or any other value you want, when the timer reaches this number it will reset.
 3.A "Greater or equal" gate ("Gate - Comparison")
 4.A button with an on value of 1 and an off value of 0, you want the toggle checkbox on.

Wiring

 1.(Timer) Run to the button and Reset to the "greater or equal"
 2.("Greater or equal") A to the Timer and B to the "constant value"

How it works

For the people who are just starting to learn wire, I will explain how it works.

It is actually really simple. The timer starts when the value is anything other than 0 so when the button is on and the value is 1 so the timer activates. The equal to gate is wired A to the timer and B to the constant because the equation is A=B and when A=B it activates to the value of 1. That is why the timer's reset is wired to the equal to gate, because it activates with the value of 1 resetting the timer.

'Improvements'

First off the use of this is wiring something, an igniter,a grabber ,or whatever to the equal to gate and it will activate every 3 seconds. One improvement would be to wire a light to it, but that wouldn't work because the value is 1 and a light needs at least the value of 50 to be noticeably bright. That's why you can get a multiply gate and wire A to the equal to gate and B to a new constant value of 255 for maximum lighting. then wire the light to the multiply gate. This will make the light flash. By the way sorry there isn't any pictures, I do not own G mod I just play it a lot at a friend's house.Well I hope this helped at least someone and that I helped someone understand how this works.

Screen Display - Bambo/Neon

 1. Once done the 1st bit of this Tutorial, place a "Round" chip from "Gate - Arithmetic" on the Object.
 2. Then Wire the A from the "Round" chip to the Timer.
 3. after that spawn a "Screen" under "Wire - Display" and Wire Its A to the "Round" Chip.
