Geometry Nodes countdown timer (blue)

Okay, nothing spectacular here, but I was working on a countdown timer for a livestream we’re hosting at Sketchfab later this week. And since it was blue I figured I’d share it here :wink:

The trickiest part was handling the trailing zero for seconds 0-9; I ended up creating a separate geometry for both cases and using a scale transform to hide the one that I don’t need.

It sure is! I do enjoy figuring out how to use it for tasks like this.

Neat! You can simplify it and solve the leading zero issue like this:

Explanatory “truth table”:

inputx 0.1to stringreplace "." with ""
50.5"0.5""05"
90.9"0.9""09"
252.5"2.5""25"

Thanks, I’ll give that another look tonight! And your setup gave me some more inspiration to make this reusable.
