Help with Events
« on: April 11, 2011, 10:56:00 PM »
I have a problem with events on 0.875. All seem to be working fine- events trigger actions, no problem.

I am having difficulty with an event when it is used to action mutliple, different groups. In the Command Tree, I have an event that triggers 3 actions- to enable/disable different Groups. The command only works if the command has one or two actions- all actions work. But when I add a third action, only 2 of the actions work- the third is ignored. It appears to be ignoring the first action in the list of three. I know the event itself is fine as it triggers a single action.

Could it be a timing issue?

which event?

can you post the command that fails to execute all 3 actions?

does it fail every time?

It is really not clear to me if you are talking about an event triggering a single command which contains multiple actions (i.e. macro), or if you are talking about an event which is triggering multiple commands, each of which contains one or more actions.

If a command is in a group that is disabled then the event will not trigger that command.  Maybe that is what you are experiencing.  If you have events that you want to be active at all times you should move them to a group which is never disabled.

Just watching the federal debate- working on VC is much more fun (and worthwhile ;D) Sorry for the confusing post.

I just tried to simulate the described condition and all is working fine! Maybe it was a re-boot that fixed it but probably a layer 8 problem  :bonk

Sorry- should have tried some options/more trouble shooting before posting..............
