So... suppose I run:

take stone;#wa 5000;drop stone;#wa 5000;take stone;#wa 5000;drop stone;#wa 5000;take stone;#wa 5000;drop stone;#wa 5000;take stone;#wa 5000;drop stone;#wa 5000;

and then... 2 seconds in I realize I need to do something else first... How can i cancel the pending items so they don't spam up my connection?

well with all the waits it should make a separate thread, which you can #STOP
problem is you will have to supply the thread number, which you can get by using the #THREAD command by itself

If you just sent a whole stack of commands like that, then you'd do the below:

1)use #THREAD to get the thread id number (don't think #WAIT lets you name threads it creates, but even if it did you didn't do that so the only way to refer to this thread is by number)
2)use #STOP on that thread id number

That's not too intuitive, though, so you might want to consider a command queueing script.

The #thread did it. Many thanks!

By using the #THREAD command, you can specify a name for the thread, which you can use to refer to it, rather than looking up the number to use with the #STOP command.

For example:

Bla bla bla, you're just too wise, guys.

Just press escape, boncne!

Escape will not work, because the commands are running in a separate thread. That's why he needs to use the #THREAD and #STOP commands.

Yes, escape will work.
