What did you really do? I started actually trying to test one with get timer

and set it up like...

On the main movie, in the frame where I want the pause:

 Set Variable "Now" = GetTimer

 Stop

Made a two frame control mc placed on this frame with:

 Set Variable "Timer1" = /:Now

 Set Variable "Timer2" = GetTimer

    If Timer2 - Timer1 < 5000

        Begin Tell Target /

            Play

        End Tell Target

        Stop

    End If

On both frames


but the movie I'm testing it on has some stuff heavy processor stuff it has

to draw before it goes on, so I'm still monkeying with what exactly I'd want

those numbers set at and if it works right.


So what was the easiest? :)
