Solved How to do a countdown on config like older plugins?

Hello, I'm trying to fix a counter type in a minigame but I do not know why it does not work, I'm using the '--' operator to decrease counting number but always continues with 20 or 19 and never goes down and also do not know how that work:
https://github.com/kaitododoyt/SkyW...rc/KaitoDoDo/SkyWarsTeam/SkyWarsTeam.php#L770
works and mine not, first of all, yes I am using Tasks.

I have that code:

PHP:

//in config is like this: countdown: 20
    $counterArena = $config->get($levelArena . "countdown");
//and then after all they send a message to the player with variable $counterArena
                        $counterArena--;
$player->sendPopup("Game starts in ".$counterArena.".");


 

The problem is that you update $counterArena variable from config every time you decrease it. You should load $counterArena once and then decrement it.

 

Yeah, but how can i do that? Because it needs to be in the task file to get that $counterArena, and i can't get whitout update because it's in a task file, mine is similar that, and that works:

create a task and construct the time i guess

 

What you mean?

 

in the constructor of the task have $this->counterArena = $config->get($levelArena . "countdown"); and then access it with $this->counterArena--; in your onRun
