I'm trying to create a timer with decimals:
example 00:00:00 (minutes: seconds: tenths)
how can I do?

    It's explained in the Math section of The Unofficial GameSalad Textbook. Basically, it returns the remainder.

    Is this what you're looking for...
    floor(( game.Time /60))..":"..floor( game.Time %60)..":"..floor( game.Time *10)%10

    I think it's actually pretty useful to have the book on the iPhone. It's like a second monitor. The printed version of the book may return after GameSalad leaves beta. But right now, the software changes too frequently. A book published today could be rendered obsolete with the next update.

    I use the app version. I don't even have a printed copy of the book. HA HA :)

    The problem with the video is that it's really hard to read the formula. I looked at it quickly, looks like a good formula because it seems to have fixed digit spacing.
