Just one more thing, you need to set in a variable the return value of the “Set Timer by Function Name”. Then you need to use that variable in the input “Handle” of the “Clear Time by Handle” function. Otherwise the “Clear Time” will not know which timer it needs to clear.

I thought I might have missed something, Good catch!

Thank for that!

But, still one question , ClearTimer function was replace by Clear Timer by Handle" function over Unreal Version?

“Clear Timer by Handle” replaced “Clear timer”, I think it was around 4.6.

I am using timers to add a delay to a moving platform.

That make sense, the video was upload in 2015, 4.6 was released in December 2014 ,that was probably the version he was using…Thank again !! :slight_smile:
