Do I understand Alternate Events correctly?
Can Alternate Events be scripted to fire during the show if the Alternate button is not pushed during the show?
i.e. - example script....I've highlighted the Alternate events - they are on Mod 3 cue 17 and 18 and Mod 4 cue 17 and 18. As you can see, I have those cues time scripted to fire near the end of the show (they are timed to fire with other cakes). Am I correct in assuming these will fire at the time scripted event time if I have not pushed the defined Alternate Button at some point earlier during the show? My intent is that I have these Alternate Events available to me if needed earlier in the show, but if I dont hit the Alternate Button, then my timed script will automatically fire them when I want them to during the show. So I dont have unfired product at the end of the show.
