Tip: Always add failsafes to procedures that wait for something to occur.
Explanation: Adding a timeout period for functions that wait for an event to happen allows the script to recover if the event never appears or if there is a problem detecting it. Exiting after a time limit has been reached avoids eternal waits and repetitive mouse movement.

Tip: if you found a bug in a script, please give as much information as possible!
Explanation: add simba debug log, make screenshots or a video, explain as good as possible what happens so it's easier for the script writer to fix the problem!
edit: @King are you going to add all the tips in the first post so that nobody has to scroll trough the posts?
