The only time I have problems with guiding now is if I lose the guide star during a dither.
It that happens I get the 100 dither settling forever lol.
If I enclose my dither statement inside one of these and give it maybe 2 minutes would that bring execution back to normal. Maybe wrap them all in a ignore errors clause.
It looks promising
Thanks

Re: Stop running these steps if guiding lost - question
Hi,
yes, I think that should work, or alternatively you could just put your dither step inside a 'stop running these steps after <X> minutes' step, to simply put a time limit on how long the dither takes. There shouldn't be any need for an 'ignore errors' step, as a hitting the limitation on time is considered 'normal' operation rather than an error.
cheers,
Robin
