alternative delay bet
« on: 29 Oct 2014, 18:05 »
Hi,
I would like a condition that will work without depending on another trigger to fire.
The "now wait" condition relies on a trigger to fire before the waiting trigger fires.
The odds required by the Back Trigger and the odds for a greenup are very close prompting a clash resulting sometimes in both triggers firing.
I would like to give the greenup trigger a chance to do its stuff while the back trigger waits in a gentlemanly fashion........ Maybe I need 2 or more conditions for this.
The greenup trigger is a simple trigger I developed today and works very well.
Thanks

I have used a timing delay trigger that multiples the rank by idle_rate.
Thus a Fav bet will fire in one fresh, A 3rd fav will fire in three refreshes.

Food for thought?

Thanks for your input Londolozi, I will play around with that tomorrow when I have a bit more time.
I'm guessing you're meaning a condition
'and selection's trigger expression inplay_rate is equal to 1'  (for fav inplay) ?
Thanks

Londolozi et al,   can you or someone elaborate on the "timing delay" trigger as I have tried the following condition  'and selection's trigger expression inplay_rate is equal to 2'
however it returns 'true' and bet is placed exactly at same second as the greenup bet.
example:
4:02:10    Back trigger
4:02:10    Greenup trigger
I want to delay the 'back' trigger as the greenup calculated the greenup bet from previous bets placed by the triggers.
Many Thanks

hi
if your back and green selection is the same, you could use in your green trigger.
and selections trigger expression now_time is greater than bm_backtime+(mf_second*10)

change the 10 to however many seconds you required the delay.

Hi mcbee,
Thanks, finally I have been given a solution. It works fine on same selections.
However, how can the problem be solved when the greenup and back bets are different ?
Many thanks if you could assist again
Cheers

hi
if you know the selections index then
and selections trigger expression now_time is greater than s_index number_bm_backtime+(mf_second*10)
