How to go to another frame after an amount of time?

How do you go to another frame after an amount of time has passed? Maybe using VBScript? I'm making a H.O.U.S.E. Part 2 demo :3

It depends on how/when you want the timer activated.

If it is immediately upon entering a frame that you want it to go to another frame after a period of time, go to Frame Properties and from the general tab, check the box for Enable Timer then fill in the fields.

If you want it to be activated by a hotspot, enter the following code in the hotspot's advanced tab (scripting):

Code: Select all

action.createtimedevent <seconds delay>, "action.gotoframe ""frame name""", false

example: I'm on frame A and I want to go to frame B after 10 seconds that a hotspot is clicked

Code: Select all

action.createtimedevent 10, "action.gotoframe ""B""", false

the amount of delay time can be very small: .1 to something like 25 seconds. Any longer time needed then you have to add a createtimedevent to a createtimedevent, which is fun in itself because it looks so messy!

Thanks!

It was right when you entered the frame, so I put the timer
