Breaking waits
|
Is there a way to break midway through a wait without executing the command after the wait? For example, if I have a wait trigger set for five minutes but I decide I don't want the command to execute, how can I break it? Using #break ends the wait but causes the command to execute.

Well, #wait sucks, don't use it.
But if you're set on using it, you can make the command after the wait depend on an #if check to a status variable you can set just before issuing the #break.

You could create an #ALARM trigger with an identifier which calls an alias.
If you want to break the wait, you would untrigger that #ALARM identifier
and directly call the same alias.
