[Crls]

If I want to have an object that make an action few seconds after the mouse is clicked.

How could I make this event?

Thanks

* User click on Active
- Active: Set alterable value A to 100

* Always
+ Active: Alterable value A = 0
- Insert action here...

* Always
- Active: Alterable value A = Alterable value A - 1

thanks a lot
I think i've got something wrong though... the object (active1) is set to the mouse pointer and the action is to create another object (active2) relative to active 1

So it would be when the mouse is clicked anywhere will create Active 2 few seconds after.

I tried:
*user click with left button >>Active2 set alterable value A to 100

*always
+ Active2:Alterable Value = 0 >> Create object (active 2)

* Always
- Active2: Alterable value A = Alterable value A - 1

and what it does is create the object continuously and stop creating it when I click.

Any suggestion?

* User click on Active
+ Active: Alterable value A >= 0
- Active: Set alterable value A to 100

* Active: Alterable value A = 0
- Set Alterable value A to -1
- Insert action here...

* Always
- Active: Alterable value A = Alterable value A - 1

Try that instead.

Nop

what it does is to create the object at the beginning and then nothing happens when I click.

Just wondering, because I do what you are telling me but I don't understand the logic of it. Don't understand the time factor here.
What actually happens when you compare:
Active: Alterable value A = Alterable value A - 1

Eh, oops. :blush: Edited my post. Try again.

I have tried too and nop

So basically when you click it set the value to 100. and then is with value A = value A -1 that you decrease the value(creating time between the click ant the action) If I am not wrong ??

I manage to do what I want with the timer object:

so when click set the timer to 0.
compare time to timer = 1 >> make the action.

So that makes the action 1 second after I clicked.

But this is not the way I want, because that way you can not use the timer for almost anything else.

* Click
- Set Value to 50

* Value > 0
- Subtract 1 from Value

* Value == 0
- Do stuff
- Set value = -1

Thanks RickyRombo,
It works perfect, and even before I tried made sense.

This is not important but just curious and wondering that is the speed of the "subtract"

Anyway Thanks all for the help

I am so excited making all this stuff honestly
