Hello,

I am trying to make a loop in PD that runs a couple of times, but before the next run starts I want to insert a delay.

For example: I want to print the numbers 0-2 with a delay of 2 seconds.

As a test I tried to alter the loop shown in the [until] help, but as delay outputs a bang I am not sure how to implement this correct.

Any tips?

Maybe you can use [delay 2000] for that.

[until] just sends as many bangs as you tell it to, but without any delay.

for delayed action, you need to use a counter and a [select] object to stop counting when you reach the desired number.

I know/did, but the problem is (was) where to insert it when using [until]

Thanks for the input!

I already managed to solved the prolbem:

1. Adding a delay to the counter in the help section (control examples).

2. Stop counter with help of [moses] after specified number of loops/counts.
