@richard, idk if and where the actualty topic for arcade-timers is, but inside this file there is a typo. it is right here:

github.com/microsoft/arcade-timers

timers.ts

f378fb8b9


      
           * Run the attached code seperately from other code.
           * This creates a seperate context for "pause" so that pauses
           * within or without this code are seperated.
           */
          //% block="separately do"
          //% handlerStatement=1
          export function background(then: () => void) {
              control.runInBackground(then)
          }
          
          let decounceTimeouts: {[key: string]: number} = {}
          /**
           * After this block hasn't been called with the given key
           * for a certain amount of time run the attached code.
           * Also known as "debounce".
           */
          //% block="after $key settled for $time do"
          //% time.defl=500
          //% key.defl="action"
          //% handlerStatement=1
          //% %time=timePicker ms"

is that supposed to be debounceTimeouts?

you are correct! luckily, it’s not exposed anywhere so it’s not really causing any problems.
