Chain rule actions as a sequence

---

Currently it is only possible to do multiple things in parallel after a trigger.

What about chaining a sequence of things?

Example:
switch light_1 on for 3 seconds then wait 5 seconds and switch light_2 on for 3 seconds

It is possible.

If ... then switch lamp1 on after 3 seconds switch lamp2 on after 6 seconds switch lamp3 on

You have now a gap between the switching of the lamps of 3 seconds.

I think he means something else, this should do it:

if ... then turn light_1 on for 3 seconds and after 8 seconds turn light_2 on for 3 seconds

His example is this

If ... then switch light1_on for 3 seconds and after 8 seconds switch light_2 on for 3 seconds

I am not sure if it works with the “after 8 seconds” behind “3 seconds”

You’re right, didn’t test it in pimatic. Or he wants something like this: https://github.com/pimatic/pimatic/issues/531
