Vanishing Platforms

Anybody have some ideas on how to set up a vanishing platform in a game that will re-spawn after so many seconds?

i wouldnt spawn and destroy it, i would do it like this:

have the platform wherever you want it. Now say you want it to disapear after ten seconds, then apear again another ten seconds after that.

Have a timer in the platform every 10 seconds change attribute self color alpha to 0

then make a rule when attrbute self colo alpha=0
then put a timer in that rule after 10 seconds run to completion checked
change attreibute self color alpha to 1

then whatever you want to collide with the platofrm, have the collide behavior for thos objects in the platform and in a rule when attribute self color alpha=1 so they only collide when its visible
