Highlighting a character faster

Hi all,
On my videogame when my mouse is over a certain character, the character is supposed to glow. I do this in this way: when mouse pointer is over active 30, then change animation sequence of active 30 to "glow". Unfortunately if I do this, there is a 3 second delay before the character actually glows. Is there any way to make this go faster? I've seen it done faster before on other people's games created by MFD2.

I can't imagine why there would be a three-second delay. What's the exact event/action that you're using?

Me neither. No delay with me.

Well, can you give me the correct event/action? I don't think you really need to know the one I'm using...

It sounds just the same as what you said - when cursor is over object "Active 30" -> Active 30: Change animation sequence to "glow". Although if you're using an active in place of the cursor, you would use the event "Cursor object is overlapping Active 30".
