Yeah, I'm gonna use 24 hours as interval... Will test again but I'm not sure why it suddenly would work now? I don't think Martin released a fix, right?

Right. But i think you have created the action after the target time.
The schedule is working properly as i have replicated. Just create the action as i said. Should work without any issue.

Ergo, it did not work but luckily I'll be promoting this team for the next half year... If we could get this fixed by Monday's that'd work for me ;-)

Should start in 2 minutes is ok. But, what is the time before 2 minute was? You should have mentioned that. I can't see the start time so, the rest picture is useless to me.


Well, I think this issue somewhere else but not fluctuate. I am showing my workaround that might help you understanding the situation....

This was my settings...

I have created 2 action.
In processor ran them using RUN NEXT Button
Ran them multiple time.
Look at the last 2 waiting time. Though other actions might not able to help you but the last 2 waiting can.

Do you still think tehre is an issue with fluct?

Honestly, i am not facing immediate run issue but i am sure the fluct is just working at my end.
TD version - 1.3.9.3. What is yours?

wtf are you on about? I don't get it - at all.

I create an Action.

I set the action to randomly WAIT up to 24 hours before doing something.

It starts working immediately instead.

What am I overlooking here?? The sheit ain't working as far as I'm concerned. I don't understand anything you are saying here that would make sense to me.

The fluctuate minutes will only effect the repeated action, not the original. The first action runs at it's set time, the fluctuate minutes time will not apply.

However, you said it starts immediately. This is not happening for me.

I set daily runner: 20:00 (one hour in the future)
I set fluct mins: 1420

I create 20 actions.
All 20 actions are scheduled for 20:00, *none* started immediately. Can I confirm if you mean immediately as in, at the specific daily run time WITHOUT fluct, or do you mean immediately as in the daily run time is ignored.

Also, with such a big fluct, 24 hours, I am unsure where will happen if your random fluct time is -24 hours. I never tested this as the random fluct was intended and tested as such to vary by minutes, perhaps an hour. But the possibility the randomised next daily run is before the just finished action, I am not sure the code would handle that all too well...

(sigh) but ok... The action starts at the scheduled time. It should then determine +- minutes interval and add xy minutes before actually executing the Action's actions like retweeting and such.

If I have a customer with only 1 tweet, or 1 retweet, I don't want that to be done on the same time every day. I need to reach all timezones for my projects, not just that small time-frame.

The bot pulls time from the local machine so, only 1 timezone is working. Not sure about multiple timezone.

Pardon, but perhaps
This line

Confused me. Thought you have customer from different timezone too, and they want tweet on their timezone. Apologies.
