Ben,
Check out the pendingMessages function and the cancel command. Used
in tandem, they can cancel all, well, pending messages generated by
the send in <time> command.

I have a timed quiz spread across several cards, each card has a
"Next Page" button. The quiz starts with a button.
To start the quiz, a button has:
on mouseUp
startTimer
go next
end mouseUp
The card script has:
on startTimer
send timesUp to me in 120 seconds
end startTimer
on timesUp
go card "Finish Card"
end timesUp
This works, but..
If the person finishes the quiz before the timer, I want them to be
able to stop the timer process. Otherwise, the timer may run out
and send them to the "Finished" card after they have begun another
task, and cause confusion.
So I made a button on the last page page of the quiz, an "I'm
Finished" button. The variable "Nevermind" is sent by this button:
on mouseUp
NeverMind
go next
end mouseUp
I have tried adding statements to the stack script, like:
if "NeverMind" then exit timesUp
or
on Nevermind exit startTimer
end NeverMind
Also variations of these. Nothing works when I move through it,
the timer simply runs out and moves to the "Finish Card".
Any help appreciated.
Thank you,
Ben
