Sorry, I did not explaine the situation well enough. I seems that when I execute a wait with messages for a specific contition and another event execute a wait with messages on a different condition the seconds wait cancels the first.

The waits will nest.

You should use an event style of programming; the multi-threading style will not work.

You can poll with a send-in-time cycle. Or you can use a setProp or other changing function, to send a message upon a change of some parameters or variables.

The Primer on Message Mechanics might give you some ideas, too. Find it here:

The basic idea of the event style is that each event (user action or I/O event or delayed message created with send) makes a change to the state of your program perhaps such that other user action or I/O events or delayed messages are destined to come, all creating the behavior you want.
