The "something else" happens more than once when the click duration is longer than 10 millisec

Try to put the "something else" in the mouseDown handler, it will be processed only once per click

on mouseDown
   (do something else as well) -- Places a marker at the mouseLoc.
end mouseDown

on checkMouse
  (do some stuff) --Puts the mouseLoc into a field.
  send "checkMouse" to me  in  10 millisec
  --This loop is halted with a "mouseDoubleDown" in the card script.
end checkMouse

I need help with flushing messages, at least I think it is a messages problem.

In the handler below "checkMouse" repeatedly does "some stuff", and, if the mouse was clicked ("if the mouse is down"), it does "something else as well".

The problem is that the something else often happens more than once, I assume because there is a "checkMouse" message hanging around.

Is there a better way to prevent the repetition of the "something else" than waiting 5 ticks?

on checkMouse
(do some stuff) --Puts the mouseLoc into a field.
if the mouse is down then
(do something else as well) -- Places a marker at the mouseLoc.
wait 5 ticks --I am using this line to keep ""something else" from happening more than once.
end if
send "checkMouse" to me in 10 millisec
--This loop is halted with a "mouseDoubleDown" in the card script.
end checkMouse
