Suggestion for addition

Asked by John Cotton

Making a script to follow a recorded soundtrack is difficult in the area of timing. Matching script to soundtrack is NOT easy having only the WAIT command. Here's something that would make it a LOT easier.

1. Implement a "show time" clock that starts at zero when script execution starts and runs continuously.

2. Implement WAIT variation "wait until hh:mm:ss.s" to wait until the specified show time, then proceed.
     This would be a variable wait; if the specified show time has already passed when the wait is executed,
     it would simply proceed without waiting. This will greatly simplify script synchronization.

I come from a background of Digistar 3 scripting, where time control is quite easy.

This idea sounds good! Timing is sometimes real pain, especially in longer scripts...
