Wait for 1/4 seconds before executing the 'if' statement

Question

if (mTrackableBehaviour.TrackableName == "Image1") { yield WaitForSeconds (0.25); pikachu.SetActive (true); StartSource.PlayOneShot (StartClip); } I want my program to wait for 1/4 seconds before executing the program written in the if statement. I thought, adding delay should work, I looked it up and found that the 'WaitForSeconds" ought to do it, but it didn't. I have used various other ways to implement this function like, 'yield return new WaitForSeconds', but didn't work either. All I want is to delay the if statement a bit.

Ok, what's the rest of the method? Because for yield return to work, method return type must be IEnumerator and you have to call it with StartCoroutine. Here is a link, so you can read some more about coroutines.

Your method should look something like this:

 private void StartDelayedAnimation()
 {
     StartCoroutine(DelayedAnimation());
 }
 
 private IEnumerator DelayedAnimation()
 {
     if (mTrackableBehaviour.TrackableName == "Image1") 
     { 
         yield return new WaitForSeconds(0.25f); 
         pikachu.SetActive(true); 
         StartSource.PlayOneShot(StartClip); 
     }
 }
