EDIT: \*that when finished  
EDIT2: I have found a solution, sorry!

I don’t really know what I’m doing with this timer, so I put together a few mismatched pieces of code hoping it would work, but it doesn’t here’s what I’ve got:

var fl\_TimerInstance:Timer = new Timer(1000, 10);  
fl\_TimerInstance.addEventListener(TimerEvent.TIMER, fl\_TimerHandler);  
fl\_TimerInstance.start();

var fl\_SecondsElapsed:Number = 1;

function fl\_TimerHandler(event:TimerEvent):void  
{  
trace("Seconds elapsed: " + fl\_SecondsElapsed);  
fl\_SecondsElapsed++;  
}

function goOOT(e) {  
gotoAndStop(761);  
}

setTimeout(goOOT, 10\*1000);

I get the error:  
ArgumentError: Error #1063: Argument count mismatch on ZombieGame35\_fla::MainTimeline/goOOT(). Expected 1, got 0.

at flash.utils::Timer/\_timerDispatch()  
at flash.utils::Timer/tick()

Basically, I want to go to frame 761 after 10 seconds. Could anyone please help?
