Hi @damndy,
So in order to get this working, you will need to restructure the code. There is nothing we can do to change the flow of events, the current order is the most logical and there is no setting to change it.
If you wants to achieve a different flow, one way of solving the problem would be to not reset the countdown until after a small amount of time has elapsed, and if gaze is lost during that time, freeze the button instead.
