Timing

Automation is often about waiting: for a train to reach a sensor, for a signal to clear, or simply for a passenger stop to end. These actions pause the script until the moment is right.

Action	What it does
Wait	Pause for a set or random amount of time, or until a specific time.
Wait for condition	Pause until a condition becomes true, such as a sensor or a signal state.

TIP

Prefer Wait for condition whenever the script waits for a train. Sensors tell you where a train really is; a timed wait only guesses.
