No support, use that

Change the = to a >. This is a common programming trap; the condition is only checked before the next iteration begins, not during the entire loop, so unless the iteration ends at exactly the time, the loop will run forever!

And what if you are using the timer?

How would this behave?

I'm assuming once 1 second has passed, the script will stop doing whatever it is doing and go on past the loop.

Yeah, but in that kind of actions, it ends while the typed seconds have passed!

when i rekt someone
say [Get rekt]
show (shades)
change [Guys rekt] by (1)

when I receive [Rekt]
play all sound in the group [MLG]
say something from the group [MLG Words]
do a dramatic exit

set (secs to repeat) to ((timer) + (0)) // where says 0 put the seconds to repeat
repeat until <(timer) > (secs to repeat)>
    
end

You can use this workaround if the timer is being used elsewhere.

I thought it would be like the repeat until <> block, where every time it finished doing what was inside of the c loop, it would check the condition (in this case, the condition being whether the required amount of time has passed), and then decide whether to repeat the loop or continue onward. Like the repeat until <> block, the loop would not stop halfway.

when green flag clicked
move (Banana!) steps

reset timer
repeat until <(timer)>(seconds::grey)>
    
end
