Text output
Re: Text output
I've been able to get 'wait-like' commands working! Essentially you make use of the timer, and use a couple more functions. Your script or pressure plate or what have you activates a timer, which ticks along until it gets to a number you set. The timer is set to activate another function or object that does what its supposed to. You will also want to include a script that turns off the timer, or else have the one thing timer does keep happening forever. I hope you can make your original version work somewhere else if you're done with this bit already.

Absolutely, timers are really powerful.vorebane wrote:I've been able to get 'wait-like' commands working! Essentially you make use of the timer, and use a couple more functions.

To save some effort, you can give the timer a connection to itself and set it to "deactivate", rather than writing another function - this might be easier and 9/10 times will be all you need to keep it from cycling endlessly.

Ah I can tell asking you about it would have saved myself some time coding then. 

Re: Text output
indeed, if your complex script is behaving strangely, it's always a good idea to check whether a timer isn't set to deactivate itself!
