Title: Pre-tournament followed by start of tournament
Post by: agromans on March 27, 2008, 12:01:09 PM

This is my set up:  pre-tournament screen and I push the "P" key to start the event sound.  After the event sound, I need to push the space bar to start the tournament (main) screen. 

My questions is; can you set it up where you do not need to push the space bar to start the tournament (main) screen?  I would like the tournament (main) screen to start automatically after so many seconds from pushing the "P" key.

What does "P" do?

You can't setup/start a countdown using a hotkey.  You can configure/start a countdown from the Game tab (Countdown button on the left).

You could also create an event that fires when the countdown starts.  So you could then configure your countdown, press the spacebar to start the countdown (or if you really wanted it to be the "P" key, change the hotkeys so that P starts/stops the clock), your event fires (and a sound plays), and the tournament starts at the end of the countdown...

Corey thanks for your help.  The information you gave me worked.
