Valid values

  • A number of seconds, multiplied by the frame rate of fifteen to give the count.
Caveats
  • The countdown is started whatever state it was in, so this action needs no start action beside it.
  • The countdown started announcement plays on every firing, including one that resets a countdown already running.
  • A figure of 0 leaves the countdown running at zero, which springs the mission timer expired event on the next logic pass and stops the countdown there.
