Hi, I launch a coroutine with while(true) { ... delay(3000) } code in it. Is is possible to somehow trigger skip of the delay (waiting 3s) and run the while loop body immediately?

Where do you want to trigger the skip from?

[Dominaezzz]

By skip, I assume you mean to interrupt the coroutine suspended in the delay function.

[Dominaezzz]

select might help you.

Yes. Create a channel, and the instead of delay(3000), do:

select { 
    channel.onReceive { /* skipped */ }
    onTimeout(3000) { /* waited */ }
}
