I'm sure somebody's got this down to a science and has 50+ examples,
The only thing I need to finish my engine is a timer, not just a counter that goes up, I already have that. The problem is when I die and respawn at my checkpoint, the timer is back to zero.
this presents a problem as a competent player could simply die after touching the checkpoint nearest to the goal, and rack up a huge time bonus.
Any examples/explanations would finish this engine.
