Sometimes my mud response isn't fast enough for the connect text, so I'd like to put in wait time before sending the text. Is there a way to do that?

How to put wait time into Connect Text

Make an alias which matches something like "connect_me_now".
Make that alias send whatever you need to connect to the MUD, after a delay (by a small script). Example:
Go to the Scripting configuration and put this into the box World Events -> Connect:
Note the exclamation mark. Now when you connect it will call the alias connect_me_now. That will schedule to send your username/password after 5/6 seconds. Of course modify the alias as required to have the delay you want, and send whatever you want.

<aliases>
<alias

enabled="y"
send_to="12"
sequence="100"

<send>
DoAfter (5, "gandalf") -- username
DoAfter (6, "swordfish") -- password
</send>
</alias>

!connect_me_now
