Scripting Question

I have a question about writing a script. Is there a way that I can have a thread stop and wait until a certain statement is true, such as level.x = 1 and then continue on with the rest of thread once that statement becomes true?

while (level.x != 1)
waitframe

while level.x not equal 1 wait 1 game frame or if that causes a command overflow wait longer but I think that will be ok

Depending on what you're trying to do, you may be able to use the waittill command, which would be more effeicent that the loop.
