That looks like it would just count the time from arriving at frame 1

til the user clicked the button.  I think you want something like this

(haven't tried it):


         Set Variable: click=1

         Set Variable: time1=1000

         Set Variable: time2=2000  (some big number so the diff is >500)

 

         Then the code for the instance of the button is:

 

         On (Release) 

           if click=1    (first click)

             Set Variable: "time1"=GetTimer

             Set Variable: "click"=2   (shows already clicked once)

           else     (must be second click)

             Set Variable: "time2"=GetTimer

             Set Variable: "click"=1   (reset--maybe not necessary)

           end if

           If (("time2" - "time1")  <  500)

             Go to and Stop (2)

           else

             click=1  (too much time in between, so reset everything)

             Set Variable: time1=1000

             Set Variable: time2=2000  

           end if

       End On


That's a start--you might have to modify it a bit.

Helen
