How to stop an event-circuit?

[HVMetal]

Hello!
Can somebody tell me please how can an event circuit be stopped?

Looping events can't be stopped at all in the default SMBX!

It's impossible with vanilla SMBX. You can do it with Lua but I don't know how.

Ok, thanks!

And thank you too

With LunaLua you'll make it look like a loop, while it really gets interrupted for a frame to check if it should loop again:

local looping = true
function onEvent(calledEvent)
if calledEvent == "startLoop" and looping == true then
triggerEvent("actuallyLoop")
end
if calledEvent == "cancelLoop" then
looping = false
end
end
