So in my game: [https://makecode.com/\_FgEbvkCk6EVo](https://makecode.com/_FgEbvkCk6EVo) when you interact with the machine, it does not wait 300 ms to make the percent go up by one instead it waits 300 and then does it every frame. Is there a way to make it go up by one every 300 ms without using the wait block or the pause block?
