Where do I put a timer.performWithDelay ?

Hi,

Am using StoryBoard and need to add a timer.performWithDelay, at the moment I have it in EnterScene but it only runs once. I need it to loop forever.

My exact code is -

aiTimer = timer.performWithDelay( 1000, aiPlayer(), 0 )

Any ideas where I should put it in my code ?

That timer will loop forever, because your last argument is set to 0 - loop forever.

You’ll probably need to remove the parenthesis on the function call however.

aiTimer = timer.performWithDelay( 1000, aiPlayer, 0 )

Thanks, that was the problem. Removed the parenthesis and its now looping.

Cheers,
