Pausing your code without thread.sleep()

[cartycrabber]

How can I pause my code without using thread.sleep(), which just stops the entire game. I am trying to make the player automatically output messages, and I want there to be a pause inbetween when some of the text is put out. How can I do this?

You also might have a look at my code to display tutorial messages from my Minesweeper Mod:

 

TutorialHandler.java, when called onUpdate(), it will send messages if a certain timer runs out:

MinesweeperTickHandler.java, which manages the TutorialHandlers and calls the onUpdate() every world tick:
