You'll need to test whether the display

original color impact. For something like a photograph, you'd really want

If it's a Windows box, you can do that with the "Scheduled Tasks" control

OK, I'll have to I'll have to correct you. In the original posting,
the question was about having two behaviors attached to the same
sprite and how to send a message from one behavior to the other
behavior.

the number, the

repeat loops lock out everything els
Correct me if I'm wrong - I mean this - CORRECT me if I'm wrong - but
in the case below wouldn't "spriteNum" hold a reference to the sprite
that the behaviour was attached to - and in effect, the behaviour would
be sending the message to itself?

check out getNetText() and netTextResult() in combination with netDone()

When using behaviors you need to remember that the object reference always
gets passed as the first parameter. In other words:
on foo me
me.foo2("test")
end
on foo2
put param(1) -- you'll get something like you did below
put param(2) -- you'll get "test"
end
