i tried making 2 timers when i was making dod_push and i couldnt get them to both work. So, i made one that starts on, then when u trigger it, it stops, then it gets triggered again, and it starts from the beginning again.
hope that helps

actually, i just checked the rmf, and i lied, that isnt exactly how i did it.
i have 2 dod_roundtimers, both have the same name.
one starts on (tick the property flag), one doesn't.
When an objective is accomplished, (in push its when the allies cap the first 3 flags) they both get triggered, stopping one, and starting the other from the beginning.
i have a multimanager that triggers it but i'm sure you can name it and trigger it from anything you want.
note: triggering it simply toggles it on or off, only when the timer actually runs to the end does it trigger IT'S target

make any sense?
