I need to teleport a character to different points in a loop with a small delay before each next teleportation. How to implement this delay?

local player = game:GetService("Players").LocalPlayer

player.Character:MoveTo(Vector3.new(-95, 150, 0))

--sleep(0.5)

player.Character:MoveTo(Vector3.new(-100, 150, 65))

task.wait or use coroutines to resume threads on demand

edit: yield not resume

Either wait or task.wait but task.wait is usually prefered for better practises.

task.wait(0.5)
player.Character:MoveTo(Vector3.new(-100, 150, 65))

Use task.wait() instead of wait() for better performance and accuracy.
