The ResetTimer() command seems to be a bit broken on Android. When using it i've seen the timer start anywhere from 0.0~ to 0.9~. It works great on Windows, it seems to reset to "0.0" every time.

I have created a small AppGameKit app for testing:

Made in AppGameKit 2.0.13.

I am running this on:
Galaxy Tab 2 7inch (gt-p3113)
Android KitKat 4.4.4 (Slimkat Rom)

Interesting. Same thing happens on my tablet (Samsung Galaxy Note 8, Android 4.2.2), whereas windows seems to start from 0.0.
I changed your test code slightly, to see the last reset time.




EDIT: I forgot to say that it starts at once, even if the newly reset timer shows e.g. 0.9 seconds etc.
Also, my tablet shows the reset time from almost 0.0 to about 1 second or thereabouts, different every time (I didn't test extensively).

Apologies for any typos and strange grammar.

Looks like it's reseting the number only to the left of the decimal "."

Code update shows Time of reset and value reset to.

Something else I just noticed regarding timers:

GetSeconds() function doesn't seem to reset itself between broadcasting apps to the AGK2 player (Android). In order to do that I have to close and open it again, then re-broadcast quickly-ish before my set time runs out to test it.

It might be other timer functions are affected as well, but I haven't tested for that.

Apologies for any typos and strange grammar.
