Wow that tutorial is confusing as hell.. is there a simpler way i heard "Time.DelaySinceLast()" was an easier way but i just don't know where to put it.

First: we can't really help without code. Second, if you do post code make sure it's properly commented and indented :P

use the Time.DelaySinceLast () at the end of a loop

for example
[code]
%variables

%procedures
proc a..
proc b..
proc c..
%ect..

loop
    a
    b
    c
    %ect..
    View.Update
    Time.DelaySinceLast ()%see, right at the end of a loop
end loop

anyways, if i could see some code, even just an example of what your doing, I could tell you exactly where to put it, but make sure you only have one delay or time.delaysincelast in the code,or else it will still vary

Sorry... me + stress == yelling at people. Yeah not previewing isn't a big deal; but since edits are turned off in the help forums it's a good idea :P
