Hi

I would use the "Function" plugin. I found it useful for running code asynchronously.

In the function you could pass a parameter of the card name.

Then in the function you could do something like:

Set card frame to (face up frame)

System -> wait

Set card frame to (face down frame)

Hello!

You could make the file available. Capx with this change please?

No need for plugins here, just use instance variables:

CardTimer.capx (r97)

Thanks man!

It's ok now. On LAYOUT THE CARDS SESSION, after created the card, I put the next 3 lines :

Set animation to "CardFace" ( play from beginning )

Set animation frame to Card.Cardfaceframe

Set FaceUp to True

Next, I created the blank subevent and put the action :

System Wait 5 seconds

And, I created one more subevent : System Pick all Card and put the

action ( next 2 lines ):

Set FaceUp to False

Set Animation to "CardBack" ( play from beginning )

Bingo! My game works fine.
