can anyone explain me why this thing doesn't work???

what i did:

1) i created an integer, let's call it: TimeVariable.
2) i used change attribute behavior where i generate a random number between 5 and 10 and i assign it to TimeVariable.
3) then anime the actor every TimeVariable

    I always try to help but keep in mind i'm fairly new. I'm sure someone else can help out better. In the meantime couldn't you just get rid of the change attribute and simply put in the timer window of EVERY- random(5,10).
    Anyways i've had these same problems. Try RUN TO COMPLETION checked off.

    Click Run to Completion.

    Yes hehe that's what i meant by checked off. I need to get better with the lingo. I should have just said CHECK RUN TO COMPLETION. Thanks tenrdrmer!

    And why is that tenrdrmer? Is it because it ensures the animation triggers? I never got why.

    It tell the code to completely run though in stead of it beginning and then stoping since it can only fire the code every x seconds
    Also you may need to actually put the animate behavior inside a second time that is set to run for x number of seconds as well. Run to completion may just trigger that animate to never stop.
