Timer

Description

This displays a stopwatch style timer in the format Minutes'SecondsTenths with the help of a GUIText object. The timer can be started, stopped, and faded in and out via a toggle function.

Usage

Slap the script on a GUIText object, get a reference to it, and have at it. You can set the fade speed in seconds via the Inspector.

StartTimer() : Starts the timer and currently fades it in.

StopTimer() : Stops the timer.

Fade() : Toggles the fade state. If the timer is in the middle of a fade it will be properly reversed.
