Simple but perplexing event sheet problem

Hi All

I am currently making an educational game and am having a strange problem. I am using the global variable Cycle to make things run in sequence. The link below is too a pic of my event sheet.However when i press on "sprite 1", and expect cycle to immediately change to "infa" from "1b" it does not allways do so. If i press within a few seconds of cycle moving to 1b the animations associated with pressing sprite 1 play but the cycle does not change(however it will change on a second click). If I press a few seconds after cycle becomes 1b it works fine.

I think it is something to do with the wait between 1a and 1b, which i out in to allow my animations to play.

Thanks for any help

I am very confused

you need to post a .capx or some screenshots so we can see what your events look like to find the issue

Using the wait action this way is not the best practice..

You could use the timer behaviour, instead of the wait..
