Delay is a script editing tool that comes default with the C4 engine. It is not a function created by RCar-a-go-go, but since it will be very useful for creating an experiment, it will be explained here. Delay has a simple interface: a time specified in seconds. It has yet to be tested if its possible to specify fractions of a second. Basically when the script reaches the Delay node in the script tree, it will pause for the specified amount of time.

This is useful as it can be used in conjunction with other experimental functions like the ShowPic and HidePic. It can be as simple as doing a ShowPic followed by a delay for a specified time, then a HidePic. This effectively flashes a picture for the set time.
