# 
    public void act() 
    {
        timer++;
        if (timer == 40) getWorld().removeObject(this);
        setImage(new GreenfootImage("Message2.png"));
        if (timer == 80) getWorld().addObject(this);
    }
This is what I have, I am trying to add in the message again after I took it out. I took this section of code from the message actor. The addObject bit isn't working.

The act method is only executed when the actor is in the world. So an actor can't add itself from its act method. Maybe giving the object an invisible image is working? 
public void act()
{
    timer++;
    switch (timer)
    {
        case 40: setImage(new GreenfootImage(0,0)); break; //set invisible image
        case 80: setImage("Message2.png")); break;
    }
}

Thank you so much for your help! I managed to resolve the problem with help from your code! Here is what I did! 
    private int timer;
    public void act() 
    {
        timer++;
        if (timer == 100) setImage(new GreenfootImage("Transparent.png"));
        if (timer == 250)setImage(new GreenfootImage("Message2.png")); 
    }
All I did was make a transparent image and switched it too that.
