2. What difference does "run to complete" make on a timer behabour?
Thanks!:)

This will give a description of attributes and what they can be used for.

"Run to completion" makes the time complete it's count no matter what. Nothing will interrupt it, or make it stop until it finishes what it was told to do.

Like for an example if you have a rule, when mouse is down, after 3 seconds animate.
If run to completion is not checked. then the mouse will have to be down for 3 seconds before the actor animates. But if it is checked, then after the mouse is down, 3 seconds later, the actor will animate!
