# Objective
I want to run a system once after a given delay.
- First, I tried using the `on_timer` run condition, but it uses a
repeating timer, causing the system to run multiple times.
- Next, I tried combining the `on_timer` with the `run_once` run
condition. However, this causes the timer to *tick* only once, so the
system is never executed.
## Solution
- ~~Replace `on_timer` by `on_time_interval` and `on_real_timer` by
`on_real_time_interval` to clarify the meaning (the old ones are
deprecated to avoid a breaking change).~~ (Reverted according to
feedback)
- Add `once_after_delay` and `once_after_real_delay` to run the system
exactly once after the delay, using `TimerMode::Once`.
- Add `repeating_after_delay` and `repeating_after_real_delay` to run
the system indefinitely after the delay, using `Timer::finished` instead
of `Timer::just_finished`.

## Changelog
### Added
- `once_after_delay` and `once_after_real_delay` run conditions to run
the system exactly once after the delay, using `TimerMode::Once`.
- `repeating_after_delay` and `repeating_after_real_delay` run
conditions to run the system indefinitely after the delay, using
`Timer::finished` instead of `Timer::just_finished`.
