Time delay

[danielkompa]

Hey
I would like to know how would i add a time delay to a onEnterFrame script.

thanks,
daniel.

you could do a simple count down based on your frame rate.

If your frame rate is 30fps then 60 frames is 2 seconds for example.

code:

---

//if your putting all the code on the movie clip

onClipEvent(load){

countDown = 60;

}

onClipEvent(enterFrame){

if(countDown > 0){

countDown--;

}else{

//what to do after timer

}

}

---

times are approximate due to differences in users processor speed so you can't set your watch by it or anything.

timeDelay = 3000//in milliseconds 
mc.onLoad = function(){
	tt = getTimer();
}
mc.onEnterFrame = function(){
	if((getTimer()-tt)>timeDelay){
		//what to do after time delay
	}
}
