Hi,

I'm trying to wrap Execute in a DoAfter but it seems that the Execute is executed immediately:

Execute("ag figurine")
Send("ritual 'create figurine' wod")
DoAfter(10,"get figurine")
DoAfter(11,Execute("pp figurine"))

The pp is an MUSH alias for 'put pocket' and this is executed before the 'get figurine'. Is there a way to fix this or must I use one of the other methods to slow the commands down?

Thank you,
Woody.

Use DoAfterSpecial instead of DoAfter and send your commands to Execute.

Like this:


DoAfterSpecial(11, "pp figurine", sendto.execute)
