I'm probably missing something big, but I thought I could take my tweens and just put them in a timelinemax. 

 

regular:

weenMax.to(".primary-tl", .3, {top:"-=14px", left:"-=14px", ease: Quad.easeIn});
        TweenMax.to(".primary-br", .3, {bottom:"-=14px", right:"-=14px", ease:Quad.easeIn});
        TweenMax.to(".primary-tl", 1.8, {top:"-=200px", left:"-=1200px", rotation:"-50deg", ease: Quad.easeOut, delay:.3});
        TweenMax.to(".primary-br", 1.8, {bottom:"-=200px", right:"-=1200px", rotation:"-50deg", ease:Quad.easeOut, delay:.3, onComplete:closeGates});
gates.add(TweenMax.to(".primary-tl", .3, {top:"-=14px", left:"-=14px", ease: Quad.easeIn}));
        gates.add(TweenMax.to(".primary-br", .3, {bottom:"-=14px", right:"-=14px", ease:Quad.easeIn}, -.3));
        gates.add(TweenMax.to(".primary-tl", 1.8, {top:"-=200px", left:"-=1200px", rotation:"-50deg", ease: Quad.easeOut}));
        gates.add(TweenMax.to(".primary-br", 1.8, {bottom:"-=200px", right:"-=1200px", rotation:"-50deg", ease:Quad.easeOut}));
        
        gates.play();

Now i haven't done the timing yet, it's not about lining that up. The problem is they run fine and smooth regular, but as soon as i put them in a timeline they dont' animate at all.. they just jump to the final positions. 

 

help?

No problem. Glad you figured it out.

 

Just a tip: You only need to use add() when you want to add a TweenMax, label, callback, or timeline to a timeline.

 

It appears none of your tweens repeat so you can use TimelineLite's to() method:

 

 

gates.to(".primary-tl", .3, {top:"-=14px", left:"-=14px", ease: Quad.easeIn})
.to(".primary-br", .3, {bottom:"-=14px", right:"-=14px", ease:Quad.easeIn}, -.3)
.to(".primary-tl", 1.8, {top:"-=200px", left:"-=1200px", rotation:"-50deg", ease: Quad.easeOut})
.to(".primary-br", 1.8, {bottom:"-=200px", right:"-=1200px", rotation:"-50deg", ease:Quad.easeOut});

notice that each .to() method is chained together.

 

I think you will really enjoy and learn a lot from this new video:
