a function inside an array inside a ds_queue

[Gridma]

hello,

here's the thing, i put an function in array[0] waits to be excuted and how long it will be delay (seconds) in array[1], then i drop them in to ds_queue using ds_queue_enqueue.

script:
var command;
command[0] = aScript();
command[1] = 1;
ds_queue_enqueue(global.dsqueue,command);

then when i dequeue it from somewhere else, trying to put it into another array, and it executes itself.

script:
if(!ds_queue_empty(global.dsqueue)){
var command;
command = ds_queue_dequeue(global.dsqueue); // executes aScript() and pass array to command
}

i wanted to delay the execution, but it executes immediately after dequeue. how do i fix it? or i simply find another way?

thanks for helping.

When you are storing the function, don't put the parentheses at the end. just do the script name.

You're storing the result from executing the script in the array, not the script itself.

command[0] = aScript();

You should change it to:

command[0] = aScript;

And then execute it with:

execute_script(command);
