Longer Random Wait Command

[KonstantinMMRR]

There is a random wait command, but it only makes an AI train wait up to 3 minutes. Is there an easy way to make AI trains wait randomly for longer periods, for example an hour or more?

Please do not say to add several three minute random waits. This just statistically puts a the wait in about the middle, or about 1/2 hour when the random period is 0-1 hour.


Thank you

Well, you could put in a "wait for 5 minutes" followed by a "Random wait". This would guarantee at least 5 minutes.

If you are using the Wait for Random driver command on the Download Station, it is possible, using the WorkTable (or possibly InputTable) rule, to add a custom wait time (in seconds). Details of how to do this are in the description of the asset in question.

It has been my experience in TS12 that the "Wait for Random" only waits 1 second, no matter what period you choose.

Sounds like a bug in the command that is specific to TS12.

The built-in wait for random rule is working fine for me in TS12 with the latest patch.

Thank you for your replies. ShaneTurner12's answer is probably what I am looking for, but it is a bit too complicated for me at this time.
