How do i make a live countdown?

Yep, it’s possible to integrate this into your current code.
I got the UNIX time of your event, you can make that a variable:

local eventUnixTime = 1577232000

Then subtract the EventTime and put it in a os.date:

local eventCountdown = os.date("!*t", eventUnixTime - os.time())

Finally, you can use all the different properties:

print(string.format("There's %d days till Xmas!", eventCountdown.day))

FYI: These variables and your EventTime variable should be defined inside the while loop, otherwise they never change!
