Hello Alex,
there is no “sleep” or “wait” command in escript. All commands from one macro are executed when the macro is finished.
Two ideas to help you:
1) create a cuelist with some (DMX-empty) cues. Set those cues to have Control time of 30sec. As Action#1 use Call Macro > macro1 (for cue1 and macro2 for cue2, …)
2) run the macro(s) secondly (or each frame) and use global variables to create a state-machine.
Tiny example: a global variable “status” is 1 as long as macro1 shall execute. In macro1 first check is “if (status != 1) exit;”
hope that helps,
Björn
