A simple

Delay 250

will do what you want, but note that NOTHING will happen for the 1/4 second delay.
If this is not what you want, then you will have to use the Millisecs() command

starttimedelay = Millisecs()

to record the current milliseconds when you want the delay to start. Once this check

If starttimedelay + 250 > Millisecs()

is true then you can proceed with the next step in your animation.
