Task.wait() for stepped

well Stepped runs before physics happen, so if you need to mess with the physics I recommend using Heartbeat

you should read the api better
this applies with the :Connect() parameters, not :Wait()

try this code and tell me if it waits 30 seconds, because it doesn’t

local RunService = game:GetService("RunService")

RunService.Heartbeat:Wait(10)
RunService.Stepped:Wait(10)
RunService.RenderStepped:Wait(10)

print("test")

Thought you said stepped because of the title of the topic, apologies.

Let me try and clear a few things up.

task.wait is the replacement for wait
wait resumes before we process characters in the middle of the frame
task.wait resumes alongside heartbeat at the end of the frame
There is no drop in for Stepped. You should use RunService.Stepped:Wait()

adding on, RunService.Heartbeat:Wait() returns the amount of time passed since the last frame, while task.wait() returns the amount of time it yielded.
