The codepen isn't really working to test this out because I'm using es6 modules and webpack. 

Here is the code:
I'm trying to play this.tlTest when the user clicks a button, it works but it works after a good 20 seconds or so and not sure why it's doing that.

If you want I can send you the whole project as a zipped file.
 

import SplitText from './SplitText';
// import { TimelineLite } from 'gsap';

class IntroAnimations{
    constructor(){

        this.ctaLoad = document.querySelector('#js-cta-load');
        this.tlTest = new TimelineLite({paused: true});
        this.splitVal_title = new SplitText().implementDomElement(document.querySelector('#js-company-name')),
        this.splitVal_companyInfo = new SplitText().implementDomElement(document.querySelector('#js-loading-caption')),
        this.masterTimeline();
        this.ctaLoad.addEventListener('click', this.playTimeline.bind(this));

    };

    playTimeline(){
        this.tlTest.play();
        console.log('playyy');
    }

    landTimeline(){

        console.log('okkkk');

        let loadingPage     = document.querySelector('.loading'),
            jsLogo          = document.querySelector('#js-logo'),
            jsMenuToggle    = document.querySelector('#js-menu-toggle');

        this.tlTest
            .staggerTo(this.splitVal_title, 1.5, {opacity: 0, autoAlpha: 0, x: 30, ease: Power4.easeOut}, 0.08)
            .staggerTo(this.splitVal_companyInfo, 7, {opacity: 0, autoAlpha: 0, x: 30, ease: Power4.easeOut}, 0.03, '-=1.35')
            .to(loadingPage, 1.7, {opacity: 0, autoAlpha: 0, ease: Power4.easeOut})
            .to([jsLogo, jsMenuToggle], 1, {opacity: 1, autoAlpha: 1, ease: Power4.easeOut}, '-=.5');

        return this.tlTest;
    }


    loadTimeline(){


        let tlload = new TimelineLite(),
            counterHolder = document.querySelector('#js-interval-counter'),
            navigationItems = document.querySelectorAll('.navigation__items'),
            counter = { value: 0 },
            el = counterHolder;


        tlload
            .set([this.splitVal_title, this.splitVal_companyInfo], {autoAlpha: 0, opacity: 0, x: 34})
            .to(counter, 3, {value: 100, onUpdate: function () {
                el.textContent = Math.ceil(counter.value)+'%';
            }, ease:Power3.easeInOut})
            .to(el, .6, {opacity: 0, autoAlpha: 0})
            .set(el, {display: 'none'})
            .staggerTo(this.splitVal_title, 1.5, {opacity: 1, autoAlpha: 1, x: 0, ease: Power4.easeOut}, 0.08, '-=.55')
            .staggerTo(this.splitVal_companyInfo, 7, {opacity: 1, autoAlpha: 1, x: 0, ease: Power4.easeOut}, 0.03, '-=1.35')
            .addLabel('title-caption-finished', '-=6.5')
            .to(navigationItems, 3, {opacity: 1, autoAlpha: 1, ease: Power4.easeOut}, 'title-caption-finished')
            .to(this.ctaLoad, 3, {opacity: 1, autoAlpha: 1, ease: Power4.easeOut}, 'title-caption-finished');


        return tlload;

    };



    masterTimeline(){

        console.log('testing');

        new TimelineMax()
            .add(this.loadTimeline())
            .add(this.landTimeline());
    };
};

export default IntroAnimations;

It looks to me like your loadTimeline() is approximately 20 seconds long and the landTimeline() is playing in sequence on the master timeline as it should. If you want to jump to that part of the master timeline on click, you can add a label and play to or from that point.

OHHH. Okay I thought by clicking on the button the landTimeline() would run from its position of start. So, it doesn't run in that way instead I have to make it jump to a certain position because its connected to the masterTimeline()?

Okay thank you!

  Added a label in master timeline and then playing it via playTimeline but still taking a while to start up, not sure what I did wrong..

As far as I can see from the code, your tlMaster timeline is not paused so that will just start playing automatically. Are you sure your button click handler is working correctly? I'm really not sure what to tell you.

 

As we've mentioned in your other threads, it is so hard to offer assistance by just looking at pasted code without a demo. It doesn't have to be your actual project. In fact, it's preferable that it isn't. We're only looking for just enough code to demonstrate the problem or question. Some plain divs and minimal code like I used in my demo would be great. I'll put it here again for you so you can see that everything works fine playing at a label. Please feel free to fork this demo and make some changes so it's more like your project.

Thanks.
