Hi and thanks for your response but I just can't seem to get my head around
timeout, timeoutLapsed, setting what to where? I wrote this script and oit seemed
to work for a while but then...

on timeout
  set the timeoutLength to 600
  if random (2)=2 then
    go to frame 141


  else
  if random(2) = 2 then
    go to frame 185
  else go to frame 230
 end if
end if
end

I have this as a moviescript, and a "go to the frame" at where I want the timeout
stuff to happen.

If I place my playback head after the "go to the frame" the movie seems to work.
It palys from whatever frame, returns to "index", waits 10 seconds and then
randomly go to one of 3 frames, plays that and returns to "index" and so on. But
if I start the movie from the beginning it just doesn't get passed the "go to the
frame" script.

What have I done wrong. I feel that I've tried everything but obviously am missing
something. Also the random part of the script - is there a better way of doing
this?

Any help on this would be really appreciated. Thank you
mm
