Title says all

Who the hell is General Failure? And why is he trying to read my hard disk?

My software never has bugs. It just develops random features.

Can you give an example of what you're after? I'm not understanding the title all too well.

How do I repeat a few lines of code over and over forever and how do I delay time like waiting 3 secondes for the door to open after using the switch.

The script itself loops indefinitely during play. Just have it check for specific state value before running certain lines and only those lines will be used when the state is set to that value.

As for time delays, just use the timer. Here's an example:


That will wait 3 seconds before doing stuff.

I'm not sure if you're serious or not... but just to be sure. You don't actually put "<do stuff>" in the script. You put your own script code there to have it do what you want it to do after the 3 seconds are up.

No, you don't need the <>

For that loop, it would look like this:


It will loop that indefinitely, unless told to move to another state.

All you need to know is that the script itself is within a loop, and is the ONLY loop you need to worry about.



That'd be the pseudocode for the line of script I wrote above
