Ive just used (pause 5000) thats a 5 second pause, but i don’t know how to use the (play) command.

If pause something for 5 seconds isn’t it self evident that it continues to run after 5 seconds?

Be sure to place the number in the “Target” field, not “Value” (as per help document for that command). When executed, it will show count down timer then auto-advance to next step in your program.
