$begin = TimerInit()
;Do your waitting here
while 1  ; loop
$dif = TimerDiff($begin) ; check the time, display it.
wend
MsgBox(0,"Time Difference",$dif);Now this is the end of the script.

while 1  ; loop
$dif = TimerDiff($begin) ; check the time, display it.
wend
MsgBox(0,"Time Difference",$dif);Now this is the end of the script.

PuppyPlanet was trying to make a quick score again and totally fucked up on the example.

As for the actual answer to the question, you can use something like this:

; Calls the sleep and display function with a 5 second delay
_SleepAndDisplay(5000)

Func _SleepAndDisplay($sleepTime, $checkEveryMS = 100) ; $sleepTime determines how long to sleep, $checkEveryMS determines how often should be checked (in example: 100ms checks 10 times per second (1000/100 = 10))
    $timeStamp = TimerInit() ; Store the time we started to sleep in a variable
    
    while 1 ; Continously check how much time has elapsed and display it
        $timeDiff = TimerDiff($timeStamp) ; Check how much time has elapsed since we started sleeping
        if ($timeDiff > $sleepTime) Then ; If the time for sleeping has passed, we can go out of the loop
            ExitLoop ; Exit the loop and go to the end of the function
        EndIf
        ToolTip(@ScriptName & ": " & Round($timeDiff/1000) & "s of waiting have elapsed.", 0, 0) ; Displays a message with the time that has been waited in seconds
        Sleep($checkEveryMS) ; Wait a while before we do the next step. If we omit this step then CPU message will skyrocket.
    wend
    
    ToolTip("") ; Removes the ToolTip from the screen.
    
    Return ; Exits the function
EndFunc

Okay, I am going if you don't want me here, bye everyone.

Ban me. Do what ever you want just can't stand your f-ing face anymore.

OUT!

Edit: My last word is. The only reason that you write this script is because I posted a bad script and you just want to call me a PuppyPlanet. You mom is one go and have a look.

Hi,

here's the countdown version:

#include <Date.au3>
_countDown(50000)

Func _countDown($Countdown)
    $seconds = _DateAdd('s', $Countdown / 1000, _NowCalc())
    Do
        Sleep(100)
        $sec = _DateDiff('s', _NowCalc(), $seconds)
        $string = StringFormat("%.02d" & ":" & "%.02d" & ":" & "%.02d", _
        Mod($sec / 3600, 24), Mod(($sec / 60), 60), Mod($sec, 60))
        ToolTip(@ScriptName & ": Time left before executing: " & $string , 0, 0)
    Until $sec = 0
EndFunc
