Hi, Craig. Looks like the trouble is that you've always got a pending
message, so after you press stop, there's another message fired
immediately to start things rolling again.
try this handler in the card;
command cancelMessages pMessages
-- cancel any pending messages in the pMessages list
if pMessages = empty then exit cancelMessages
put the pendingMessages into tPending
repeat for each line tMsg in tPending
put item 1 of tMsg into tID
put item 3 of tMsg into tName
if tName is among the items of pMessages then cancel tID
end repeat
end cancelMessages
and change your showRandoms command to;
on showRandoms tSecs
put random(99)
if tSecs = 0 then
cancelMessages "showRandoms"
exit to top
end if
if tSecs > the seconds then send "showRandoms" && tSecs to me in 10
millisecs
end showRandoms
HTH :)
Ah, that's it. I tried handling pending messages differently but in the
wrong place:
on showRandoms tSecs
put random(99)
wait 0 with messages
if tSecs = 0 then
exit to top
end if
if tSecs > the seconds and "showRandoms" is not in the pendingmessages
then send "showRandoms" && tSecs to me in 5
end showRandoms
Your way works.
