SOLVED Wait X second before change room

[MIkadini]

I want to change room when my character die (i know i must use room_goto(roomName)), but before it i want to wait X second. I try with a while loop that stop code and use the current_time variable and the difference between it and a bigger variable. But this method block all the game. Ther's a way to wait x second before star a function / part of code. Without stop all the game?

You can simply create a "time" variable, and in the Step Event increase this, if this variable is larger than a number, go to a room using room_goto():

time += 1;
if (time >= 60)
{
    room_goto(rm_level);
}

60 = 1 second in the game (if your game speed is 60)
You can use this way to get game seconds:

game_get_speed(gamespeed_fps) * 3 //= 3 seconds (GMS 2)
room_speed * 3 //= 3 seconds (GMS 1.4)

i recive an error, In particular i need to start the death room after the character collide with a specific object. i have create a General Game object that in the create event create the global.death variable and set it to false, in the step event of the same object i create this if:

if (global.morte) {
    time += 1;
    
    if (time >= 60) {
        room_goto(RmGameOver);
    }
}

ps. Morte in italian means death. i recive this error:

You forgot to initialize the variable "time" in the Create Event:

time = 0;
