create a global attribute Game.Countdown and set it 3 (or whatever number you want to countdown from). Then make a rule, when (whatever thing sets it off, start game etc), add a timer and set it to "Every 1 second" -> Change attribute-> Game.Countdown = Game.Countdown-1.

So every 1 second, Game Countdown will reduce by 1.

Then when it gets to 0 make a new rule...When Game.Countdown = 0; (do whatever it is you want to do.)

If you want to display that number on screen simply make a new actor called Game.Countdown, drag a "Display Text" behavious into the actor and select Game.Countdown from the drop down list.
