- summary waitsnc command documentation
Generate a wait state rather than a state-no-change impasse.
|| `-e, --enable, --on` || Turns a state-no-change into a `wait` state. || || `-d, --disable, --off` || Default. A state-no-change generates an impasse. ||
In some systems, espcially those that model expert (fully chunked) knowledge, a state-no-change may represent a _wait state_ rather than an impasse. The waitsnc command allows the user to switch to a mode where a state-no-change that would normally generate an impasse (and subgoaling), instead generates a _wait_ state. At a _wait_ state, the decision cycle will repeat (and the decision cycle count is incremented) but no _state-no-change_ impasse (and therefore no substate) will be generated.
When issued with no arguments, waitsnc returns its current setting.
