time-and-timers

Use this.time.delayedCall(delay, callback, args, scope) inside a scene to fire a one-shot callback after the given milliseconds. For repeating behavior, use this.time.addEvent with a delay and repeat or loop configuration instead.

Call this.time.addEvent with a config containing delay, callback, callbackScope, and either repeat for a finite count or loop: true for infinite repetition. Note that repeat: 4 produces 5 total callback fires, one initial plus four repeats.

TimerEvent is an independent timer managed by the scene Clock that fires callbacks on a delay. Timeline is a sequencer that runs an ordered series of events at absolute or relative timestamps, supporting tweens, sounds, and custom events.

Timelines always start paused after creation, so you must call timeline.play() to begin execution. Also verify the scene is not paused, since Timeline updates are driven by the scene's update step.

Set this.time.paused = true to freeze all timers completely, or set this.time.timeScale to a value below 1 for slow motion. Individual timers can be controlled via their own paused property and timeScale multiplier.

If callbackScope is omitted, the TimerEvent itself becomes this inside the callback rather than the scene. Pass callbackScope: this in the config or use an arrow function to preserve the scene context.
