Sorry but this topic reminds me a lot of, -this- topic http://www.cocos2d-iphone.org/forum/topic/3657#post-22149 with the same results.

did you set 'self->count = 0'; in the initializer?

it gives an error, because count is not declared.

count has to be declared like this

int count

Hi, I'm not on my mac so I'm not 100% sure this is correct code but it would be better to do this

...
[self schedule:@selector(countUp:) interval:1];
...

-(void)countUp:(ccTime)dt {
count+=dt;
}

This will make the counting up accurate, the value dt you get is the time between the actual intervals. Even though you put interval:1 there its not actually 1 second between each interval, its more like 0.99123, although this seems insignificant it does add up, slightly I admit but it still does. So why not do it like this, its not like its any harder ^.^ .

And then in your countUp method add the following:

[countLabel setString:[NSString stringWithFormat:@"%i", count]];

This assumes you've declared countLabel and set it's parameters, location, etc.

Hi, you can do the following:

In your layer i suppose,

[self schedule:@selector(countUp) interval:1];

and then:

-(void)countUp
{
count++;
}

can you not just make a cocos schduler that adds 1 to an int every second, then display the int in the label?

Hello. I asked this like a week ago, but there was no concrete answer

i just want a countUp timer that is displayed in a label

I know hot to make it with normal timers, but i read in the wiki that is not recommended to use this tipe of timers

Thanks in advance
