UE5.1 - Making a Race Game Lap Timer

In this video we will add a race timer to the unreal engine driving / race template, by creating a timer within the player vehicle controller, creating a time conversion to display the time correctly in a race style format, and finally display it to the screen binding the timer to the user interface.

Thanks for watching, please leave all feedback and question below and ill try to make my way through them for you :D

Hey, currently using these tutorials for the college assignement and even though i faced some difficulties (UE5 is a chore to use) you are really helpful!

For some reason my seconds are counting 10x regular speed.. Not sure how that's happening, I've confirmed values in the macro are identical to your example... an idea as to how that could happen?

Thanks for the tutorials
