Certainly. But I stress, don't use scripting to do the timing, use a
Virtual Circuit. You can do this entire thing in a single VC - An oA2D
feeds an oByte that is linked to an oMath to calculate the countdown for
the oCountdown, or something similar. I recommend that you sit down
with paper and pencil and figure out all of the functional blocks and
then study the object list to find the right parts to implement it with.
