Actions are played from top to bottom in the list of actions for an event. The [[Wait Action]] can be used to delay other actions so they don't all run at once. Any actions placed below the Wait action will only be executed once the number of seconds provided to the wait action have passed. This can let actions that take time to complete finish before performing follow up actions. You can use multiple wait actions on a single event.
