Hey,
i would like to design a project in which respondents need to answer under a time constraint. The remainder of the time is their there score if they answer a question correctly.
Is this possible?
Thanks in advance

The simplest method would be to record the timings in the data and generate the scores in post-survey analysis.
- manual.limesurvey.org/Notifications_%26_data/en#Save_Timings
If you need the scores dynamically in the survey, you can:
1) Add a short-text question to every scored question group.
2) Enable timers on the short-text questions.
3) Add this script to the source of each short-text question. It will hide the text input and update it with the remaining time (in seconds) every second.
Here is a sample survey in which I have left the text input visible for testing purposes:

Thank you very much, this is already really helpful! Can i also make the score dependent on, the selected answer in a dropdown? I.e. the scoring value of one question times the remaining time?

Yes, you would do that in an equation question using ExpressionScript.
