So i have 5 lasers,and they all turn on at the same time,but I want them to turn off 8 seconds after they turn on,and when they turn off,I want them to stay permanently off.
Can anyone help me with this?
It shouldn’t be that hard. Have it deactivated on game start. Having something transmit a channel when that thing is triggered. Have the laser activate on that channel. Have a trigger with a delay that transmits a channel to deactivate the laser rafter the activation. For example, two triggers. One trigger activates the laser. The other triggers when the first trigger activates and this trigger deactivates the laser with a 8 second delay.

Alright here it is:
The laser’s setting should be set to off on game start. That option is in the Featured section if you scroll down.

uh so i tried it, and the lasers never spawned.
Have something activate the first trigger. Also, your spawning next to where the lasers are placed, right?
no.
you click a game overlay,and it gives you a countdown saying that lasers are about to come.
Oh, I didn’t know you wanted that. Have the channel in the overlay when it is clicked activate a trigger that has an 8 second delay. That trigger would send out a channel after the 8 second delay or whatever time you want it to be that would activate the laser. It will also activate the 2nd trigger that has a 8 second delay that sends a channel when it is triggered to the deactivate laser channel.

Here it is:
You need to make a trigger loop and have the channel that the block code activates on the same channel as the loop. Oh, and you need to connect the property to a counter.
for some odd reason, the lasers do not spawn at all.
Weird. You have the channel names spelled correctly, right? And there is a channel in the activate laser channel? You should also check if your spawn is at the laser.
You have some of the channels mixed up.
oh.
well that explains it 
which ones?
