Pausing Turn based game to see what AI does

[MikeW]

I am writing a turn based game (think risk - it's not risk but it's a good analogy for how turns work). Multiple players work great, AI works except the turn is instant. so one human player against 5 AI's. Player goes and in a blink all five AI's have gone.

Been searching and come up blank. I want to call a routine that moves the AI then in maybe a second continues the loop.

I don't know how your AI knows that it's the AI's turn, but you could put a timer on that function instead of calling it directly. Check out Phaser.Timer. There's a pretty good timer available at "game.time.events". You can do something like "game.time.events.add(5000, this.takeAITurn, this);".
