CobaltSky Posted June 12, 2003 Posted June 12, 2003 Hi Ricardo, Yes, we use it extensively for a variety of purposes, including some scheduling work. One hint I'll offer - and this applies to other script scheduling plug-ins also - be careful about re-naming scripts once you've implemented triggering functionality, as it's very easy to break a whole lot of script references in a very short time (script calls have to be referenced within the function parameters by name. Another hint - also applicable to a number of plug-ins - is to be careful not to give more than one script the same name (or at least, not one you're planning to call via an external funtion. A third suggestion would be to remember to script a periodic clearing of the buffers with the External("Actr-DeleteEvent", "-DeleteAllTriggeredEvents") function. Last but not least, you'll find that Troi include quite good documentation, including some scheduling examples which show several of the basic techniques - in the shareware downloads, along with the plug-in. They're worth checking out.
