Changing attributes only for a specific amount of time

First off, hi!

I'm creating a game where when the player hits a power up they become invincible for a specific amount of time (say 6 seconds). When the actor hits the PUP I change a global attribute called invincible to true. After 6 seconds I want the attribute to be false again. I tried a For Timer and it doesn't really change the attribute back and I wasn't sure how to do it so I figured I'd ask the genius' :).

Any help is greatly appreciated!

    You need an After timer.

    Timer after 6 seconds Change Attribute

    Be sure to check "run to completion" so that even if the rule condition changes the timer still completes.
