automator bugs sometimes

[Mintsia]

i want to know if its common or something i did was wrong , now and then it says that it did what was supossed but when i look it is stuck and didnt do it , mostly it says that its fully loaded my study preset but when i notice it did nothing and is stuck, is it normal ? and if is what where your solutions ? i'm still trying to fully understand how this thing works , gonna post how i set it with some help from what i could find.

IF EC1 COMPLETIONS < 5 {
STUDIES LOAD ID 1
UNLOCK EC 1
START EC 1
WAIT PENDING COMPLETIONS >= 5
}

1. turn off auto eternity
2. you don't need "unlock" and "start", because "start" also unlocks
3. if you don't have enough TT to buy every TS, it will get stuck on that step (this includes TT required for the EC, if you don't have enough for the unlock it will get stuck on unlock)

if this doesn't help, please provide more detail about your situation

I added some pauses in between and it works almost fine, TT wasnt a problem , almost 99% blackhole so it goes quite fast atm , now only my EC12 isnt completing all the level, it stops at 2-3 levels for some reason
Ill add the changes you sugested , always better to have less lines.

if you're confident enough that you will complete all 5 challenges in 1 go in bulk, you can simplify it a ton while leaving auto eternity on, but to something absurd (I just left mine set to eternity after several hours). regardless of what the auto is set to, it will auto-eternity once it hits the end.

If you're confident you'll get through all 5 tiers of the challenge at once, you can simply have it as:

STUDIES LOAD ID 1
START EC 1
WAIT EC1 COMPLETIONS >= 5

there's no conditions, so no wasted time checking if you should even do it. Sure, it wont be as scale-able once you start autoing challenges due to other mechanics, but that's a far distant thing. the eternity will happen automatically outside the script, so no need to check that. It may happen so quickly that pending completions will be 0 because you're no longer inside an EC, so instead you check how many completions were done.

One bug I did find with the automator is that after it gets fast enough, studies purchases can occur before the prior studies were reset, and if the new purchase only included studies from the old, it will continue on as though you made the purchases. The above code can combat this by the 1 tick slowdown of checking if the completions were done. by the time you make a purchase on the next tick, your studies will have already been fully reset.
