Can I put a "do after x seconds" block in an update event? If so, how does that work in the update event?

You shouldn't as you know UPDATE EVENT is being executed 100 times per second, so is the delayed event which will cause unpredictable errors. And maybe even a black hole will be created that will swallow the earth

Code: [Select]
If not boolean
-set boolean to true
--do after N
---do your stuff here
---set boolean to false
This is one example.  If you don't do something like that, you will only have hundreds of do after events queued one after the other.
