Im having a little bit of a problem here. Im doing my high school senior project over video game development and I need halp fast.

Goal
I need an entity to wait x amounts of seconds then walk a waypoint path half way of his waypoint path and then wait another x amounts of seconds, then after thats up I need him to finish walking the rest of his waypoint path.

Here is my code so far

+ Code Snippet

:state=0:animate=2,timerstart,state=1
:state=1,timergreater=4000:state=2

:state=2,waypointstate=0:animate=2,waypointstart,state=3
:state=3,waypointstate=3:animate=2,timerstart,waypointnext,state=4
:state=4,timergreater=4000:state=5
:state=5,waypointstate=5:animate=2,waypointstop,state=6
:state=6,waypointstate=3:animate=2,waypointnext,state=7
:state=7,waypointstate=5:animate=3,waypointstop

If anyone can solve this I would be very suprised.

Theres an image if you need to see what Im talking about.

School project????

You are on your own on that one dude....sorry.

Hint
Merry's advice on using movefore=x is the best way to control speed, so skip waypoints.

So would this work instead of doing the waypoints

(pseudo code)
walk x units
rotate to player
timer start
if x seconds is up then
rotate x units then
walk x units then
stop

Thanks for the hint Conjured Entertainment. I used the movefore action and I have finally created code to make the guy wait for 4 seconds then walk 200 units ,stop,wait 5 seconds,look at me,wait 6 seconds, turn around,walk for 2 seconds,then finally stop there.

+ Code Snippet

:state=0:animate=2,timerstart,state=1
:state=1,timergreater=4000:state=2
:state=2:animate=2,movefore=200,state=3

:state=3:animate=2,timerstart,state=4
:state=4,timergreater=5000:state=5
:state=5:rotatetoplr,state=6

:state=6:animate=2,timerstart,state=7
:state=7,timergreater=6000:state=8
:state=8:rotateiy=180,state=9
:state=9:animate=2,movefore=100,timerstart,state=10
:state=10,timergreater=2000:state=11
:state=11:animate=2,movefore=0

A huge weight has been lifted off of my shoulders I didn't know if I would ever get this to work!!!!
