How can you make an Actor wait 5 seconds (but in such a way that the whole game doesn't stop) and then delete itself?

Use an int act counter:

private int timer = 0;

public void act()
{
    if (++timer == 300) getWorld().removeObject(this);
}

The 300 is 5 times 60, or 5 seconds at 60 frames per second, which is the approximate rate at normal scenario speed of 50 (middle of speed bar).
