I’m trying to get my movie to pause for 3-7 seconds then play when the random timer is up. so it will pause for a random number of seconds between 3 and 7 and then play. is this possible? and if so how could it be done? help would be greatly appreciated.

I would like to learn action scripting on my own but programming isn’t my strong suit so it’s going a little slow 😛
