How to properly establish wait after a wall jump

    check_charge() #checks player charge for game over

    var direction := Input.get_axis("left", "right")

            velocity.x = direction * SPEED
        else:
            velocity.x = move_toward(velocity.x, 0, SPEED)
        animatedSprite2d.play("walking")
    elif state == States.WALL_SLIDING:
        if direction != 0:
            velocity.x = direction * SPEED
            #ADD SLOWER GRAVITY

You could use a Timer node, checking if it's running !is_stopped() starting after it the wall jump start()

Yeah that's the idea I'm currently trying to implement. Its awkward finding a space that doesn't disrupt actual movement though
