Is there a way to set EOS timer based on a variable/user input

[cksfantasy]

Hi All,

One other question today, with the Timers, i noticed that there is an Eval switch there, can someone give me one or two examples on how it can be used?

If i for example wanted to ask the user how much time he/she would like to be teased for, I'd like the timer to take that value and start the countdown.

Is this doable at all?

Thanks!

Prompt: variable = duration_in_s
Eval: duration_in_s = parseInt(duration_in_s)
Timer: eval = 1000 * duration_in_s

The best is to check that the user entered a number and not another string with a if isNan(duration_in_s) after the Eval
