Timer for Alarms

[General Goober]

Can anyone tell me how I can properly set the script to raise the alarm for 5 minutes.  I have got a trigger to go off when enemy present however it will not switch off.

The trigger which has the alarm as an effect should be set to repeatedly and it should be controlled by a variable e.g.

condition:   alarmOn

you can then control the alarm by controlling the variable:   have it set to true by one trigger when the intruders are detected, and have another trigger set it to false 5 minutes later.

Thanks very much.  I will give that a try.

Still cannot get it to work.  Going to try and find a tutorial. Any recommendations?
