Well - yes - sure. But why can't the features be loaded from the map archive when I start the cursed?

I'm screwing around with very simple Lua animations for some of my buildings, like mex's and power plants, and I want to know if there is a way to make an action repeat in an endless loop (that's not the Spin animation). What I'm wanting is for a part of my mex to move up and down in a slow-mo jackhammer type motion. I looked through what little the wiki had to say on Lua animation, and if it was in there, I didn't see it.

local function Piston()
  while true do
    -- Move up command
    -- WaitForMove
    -- Move down
    -- WaitForMove
  end
end

function script.Create()
  StartThread(Piston)
end

For whatever reason, the animation quickly begins speeding up, and in a few seconds it's going so fast that my frames hit 1 and the program freezes up. I tested it again, lowering the gamespeed to 0.3, and watched it speed up. It escalates very quickly.

If this is important, I had to take out the --'s you included in the script. When I plugged my own info into what you posted (like the piece name, and the distance and speed and all that), Spring would crash when I tried building one. It'd be fine right up till the moment just before the mex was completed, and then the game would freeze and I had to force quit it.
