Does wait(screenshot), 300) only check once? or 300 times?

Asked by arminius

As in does it check the screen once then wait 300 seconds to move on?
or does it keep checking? hoping for a change?
I'm hoping for the latter.

(Remark: I do not know about the frequency of re-searching, I assume RaiMan can answer that.)

Well I'm glad that my doubling of the wait time every time it fails isn't a waste of time.
Thanks.
