Title : WaitTimer(timername)

Description : Just found a major drawback with this function - It will work fine if you aren`t scanning for any events but if you are then any events that occur while the program is away in the waittimer function will be lost :/ .Works fine if you are just trying to get backward compatibility though.

Code :

Code: BlitzBasic

1. Function WaitTimer(timer$)
2.         Repeat
3.         Select WaitEvent()
4.         Case $803 : End
5.         Case $4001
6.                 Select EventSource()
7.                 Case timer$
8.                         Return
9.                 End Select
10.         End Select
11.         Forever
12. End Function
