time.sleep() stops code

[nivm200]

I want to run a loop with a delay every time the code in it is called, but whenever I use time.sleep() I can only run one loop and I need more than 1 loop to run at certain time... how can I associate the the time for the loop only and not the rest of the code?

Post you code on here then we can see if we can help.

For doing that, you should use a timer or threads.

any example code for threads/timers? I will add me code once il get home.

[Laurens-wuyts]

Here are some example scripts using threads.
You need to make a function for every separate loop you want, and start it as a thread.

Even though this shouldn't be a problem, that I can see, try putting your variables into the loop if they're not already. I had a simular situation where the loop would only run once then stop, but if I put the variables I used in the loop it worked. If not, then I'm out of idea's. Good luck, though!
