Dart Timer Seemingly Doesn't Fire












0















For some reason, the timer I made in Dart seems to not fire, as it doesn't change the screen contents. I had it working at one point, but it was gradually getting faster and faster for some reason (ticking more times per second, every second it ticked,) and I had to work on it.
Here's a link to the main.dart file.



Can anyone explain what I did wrong here? My placement of the tick function, perhaps?

    Please provide the minimal code that you think is causing the problem.

  • Make gameTimer a member variable of one of the StatefulWidgets. Create it once in initState, and cancel it in dispose too.
