Wait() is not working for me!

Question

Ok, so I have made a cutscene in unity and I used this code; var hold : int = 660; //Set this for how long your animation is

 function Update () {
  
 //Play animation
  
 wait();
  
 Application.LoadLevel(2); //Your scene
  
 }
  
 function wait () {
  
 yield WaitForSeconds ((hold));
  
 }

LightSource helped me, but it doesn't play the cutscene, it just skips to the game! I am very much of a noob, so be easy on me. :3 Please help!

Try something like this:

 var hold = 660;
 
 function Start () {
     wait();    
 }
 
 function wait () {
     //play your cutscene here
     yield WaitForSeconds(hold);
     Application.LoadLevel(2);
 }

Add the code to make your cutscene play where the comment is, I tested this with an audio clip and it worked, hopefully you have success!

There's no point to the wait function, since it just does WaitForSeconds. So, get rid of it and just use WaitForSeconds directly instead. You can't make Update into a coroutine, so move any code that needs WaitForSeconds out of Update.

Ummmm... I'm sorry for not understanding, it's just that I am a complete javascript noob, but I'll try what you said, though I don't get what a coroutine is, I'll try to figure it out. I think I broke it;

 var hold : int = 11; //Set this for how long your animation is
  
 function Update () {
  
 //Play animation
  
 WaitForSeconds(11);
  
 Application.LoadLevel(2); //Your scene
  
 }
  
 function wait(hold) {
  
 yield WaitForSeconds ((hold));
  
 }
