placing an emitter in a gani has worked for me,
then just replaceani(walk,whateveryouaniis)
and set it back when you want the emitter off.

also when you do replaceani, then you do not need to use a timeout.
you just turn if off after you use up your ammo/fuel/whatever contition sets the gani back to normal.
in my experience, timeouts that call emitters tend to make the emitters break.
