TImer Block Pause Command
I would love to see 5 pause commands added to the Timer Block:
1 Seconds
5 Seconds
10 Seconds
30 Seconds
60 Seconds
Currently I can use a ton of blocks for a simple operation. I don't think I have used more than 4 operations out of the 90 possible.
A pause command would allow for use of one block in the current build of the block and actually utilize the full command potential of them. Having the 5 commands should allow for building a series of pauses that fit in your time frame so the block processes commands in a linear fashion as opposed to an instantaneous fashion.
So for something like having an airtight hangar you could do something like say:
Close Door group
Pause 1 second
Air Vent X Depressurize
Pause 30 Seconds
Pause 10 Seconds
Pause 5 seconds
Open Hangar Door group
Now, by just adding a pause command, you should be able to maintain the way Timer blocks currently work, as you would keep the delay function you could set in the Control Panel. The only thing I am not sure about is if this would increase the games CPU usage as it tracked the Timer blocks command series.
I like this feedback
