Where

When pressed list with Play sound drumroll.mp3, an open Delay of 1500 milliseconds and Play sound applause.ogg

Delay pauses the macro before the next action. Use it to time things: switch the scene, wait a moment, then play the sound.

Setting What it does
Milliseconds How long to wait. 1000 is one second. Whole numbers only.
  • A delay always holds up the actions after it.
  • Actions before it with Wait off keep running during the delay. In the screenshot, with Wait on for the drum roll, the applause comes 1.5 seconds after the drum roll ends. With Wait off, it comes 1.5 seconds after the drum roll starts.
  • Stopping the macro ends the delay at once; the actions after it do not run.
