Hello!

I am currently working on a nearly finished project, where the player has to escape a room in a given time. So far I managed to event everything or write little snippets and the use of one plugin, but there is one last thing I am struggeling with:
The timer counts down and on reaching 0 the player gets a message that it is up, but that they are allowed to still finish the game.

Here I would love the timer to count up again, so the player has a good idea of how much overtime they had.

I found the function I needed in @Eliaquim 's timer plugin, but that also gave me two huge downsides that I could not ignore.
First of all, after every teleport, it took nearly a full second for the timer to appear again (which the "original" did not), and second, the timer is slightly cut off on the right side and also looks a little different:

Here is the default in the same size:

So basically, all I wish for, is a timer that counts up, and nothing else, so that I can give the player a "a little over, but still great" or a "long over, but that does not matter, you made it!" message in the end ;3

My only other plugin is a the instant player teleport by Hudell.
