    Actions triggered after a set time

    Does anyone know a way that you can have the actions of an event happen after a set amount of time from when the event was triggered? If you put "Every --:--" at the end, it has to trigger at an exact multiple of the time you entered and will still happen immediately. If it is a repeated event, it will trigger as soon as the timer reaches a multiple of the set time. This is not what I want; rather I would like it to do something like "--:-- after event is triggered" as a condition that I could replace with the "Every --:--" one I mentioned.

    If anyone knows of a vitalized extension that can do this or a workaround, please post it here. I have some workarounds, but they aren't very effective. For example, I could do it like this:

    *Conditions* -> Set timer to 0; activate Group
    And then in the group: Timer equals --:-- -> *actions*; deactivate Group

    But as you can see, this is not very effective.

    Thanks for the help!

    I think Jam or Andos made an extension that will let you time events after a certain amount of loops (egg function timer extension).

    Re: Actions triggered after a set time

    Unfortunately, I don't see that extension on the "Vitalized Extensions" list. Also, I'm not quite sure how to use this object...

    But thanks for the reply!

    EDIT: The extension "Fast Function" is vitalized Could it do the same thing as the eggtimer? If so could someone please explain how I would use it for my purpose? Thanks!

    My favorite for this kind of thing has always been Timer X, but I don't see it on the Vitalize list.

    Yeah that was one of my considerations as well; thwarted because it was not on the list as you said. It would be great if someone could Vitalize it.
