Ah yes you are correct, those 2 lines should be reversed to work. Also making a reference to the current time is a good idea to further increase it's stability.

Yes that would be the main problem of using TIME$, it wouldn't be consistent between games. Which will probably make a solution with MAINCNTL more desirable, hmm perhaps this? @INIT IT=MAINCNTL @MAIN PT=CT CT=FLOOR((MAINCNTL-IT)/3600) IF CT!+PT THEN VAR=VAR+1 VSYNC 1 GOTO@MAIN
