ComfyUI Node: ⏰Time Sleep

⏰Time Sleep:

The pc time sleep node is designed to introduce a deliberate pause or delay in the execution of a process within a node-based workflow. This can be particularly useful in scenarios where you need to synchronize operations, manage timing between tasks, or simply introduce a wait period before proceeding to the next step. By allowing you to specify the duration of the sleep in seconds, this node provides a straightforward way to control the flow of operations, ensuring that subsequent processes are executed only after the specified delay. This can be beneficial in managing resources, coordinating with external systems, or pacing the execution of tasks to prevent overloading.

⏰Time Sleep Input Parameters:

seconds

The seconds parameter determines the duration of the delay introduced by the node, specified in seconds. It accepts a floating-point number, allowing for precise control over the length of the pause. The minimum value is 0, which means no delay, and the maximum value is 10 seconds. The default value is set to 1 second, providing a moderate delay by default. Adjusting this parameter impacts the timing of subsequent operations, making it crucial for tasks that require specific timing or synchronization.

anything

The anything parameter is optional and can accept any type of input. This parameter allows you to pass additional data or context through the node, which can be useful if you need to maintain or manipulate data alongside the sleep operation. While it does not directly affect the sleep duration, it provides flexibility in handling various data types within your workflow.

⏰Time Sleep Output Parameters:

output

The output parameter returns the data passed through the anything input parameter. This ensures that any data or context provided to the node is preserved and can be used in subsequent nodes. The importance of this output lies in its ability to maintain the continuity of data flow within your workflow, allowing you to seamlessly integrate the sleep operation without losing any information.

⏰Time Sleep Usage Tips:

• Use the seconds parameter to fine-tune the delay according to your workflow needs, ensuring that subsequent operations are executed at the right time.
• Leverage the anything parameter to pass through data that needs to be preserved or manipulated after the sleep operation, maintaining the integrity of your workflow.

⏰Time Sleep Common Errors and Solutions:

Invalid value for seconds

• Explanation: The seconds parameter must be a floating-point number within the specified range (0 to 10).
• Solution: Ensure that the value provided for seconds is a valid float and falls within the allowed range.

Missing required input

• Explanation: The seconds parameter is required for the node to function correctly.
• Solution: Provide a valid value for the seconds parameter to ensure the node executes as expected.
