[amibroker] Bar CountdownTimer

["troll" <deanhodgins@xxxxxxxxx>]

I recently found this function (compliments of "hoolee0820" I believe 
with many thanks for sharing)

Code works fine except for fact that on hourly bars countdown 
progresses normally until 30 minutes left in bar and then function 
returns "Timer: 00:00" Not sure why timer only works on first 30 
minutes - perhaps code is set to accept 30 minute bars as maximum.

I've tried various permutations with no success so any suggestions 
would be most welcomed.
 
function CountDownTimer( ) 
   { 
   //  CountDown Timer 
   thisbar = TimeNum(); 
   nextbar = thisbar+(Interval()/60*100); 
   systime = Now(4); //pt time zone 
   systime = IIf(systime>=240000,systime-240000,systime); 
   anewbar = nextbar-systime-40; 
   anewbar = IIf(anewbar<0,0,anewbar ); 
   nnewbar = LastValue(anewbar); 
    
   if (nnewbar > 20) timercode = EncodeColor(colorBlue); 
   else timercode = EncodeColor(colorRed); 

   anewbar= NumToStr(anewbar,1,False); 
   length=StrLen(anewbar); 

   if (length== 1) timercode=timercode + "00:0" + anewbar; 
   else if (length== 2) timercode=timercode +  "00:" + anewbar; 
   else if (length== 3) timercode= timercode +  "0"+ StrLeft( anewbar, 
1) + ":" + StrRight( anewbar, 2) ; 
   else if (length== 4) timercode= timercode +  StrLeft( anewbar, 2) 
+ ":" + StrRight( anewbar, 2) ; 
   else timercode=timercode +  "00:00"; 

   timercode= EncodeColor(colorBlack) + "  Timer: " + timercode; 
   return timercode; 
   }

Regards to all ..
