How to implement a double click with a delay of some milliseconds?

Hi,
I want to write a simple C# script to double-click a entry in the probe scanner window. I tried the “MouseDoubleClick” method which isn’t working, as eve only recognizes a single click. Eve probably wants a slight delay between the two clicks, now my question is how can I achieve this?

In the latest version, I see code for a delay at following locations:

          					var MotionTextEntry = Motion?.TextEntry;
          					var mouseLocationOnScreen = MotionMousePosition.HasValue ? WindowHandle.ClientToScreen(MotionMousePosition.Value) + MouseOffsetStatic : null;
          
          					if (mouseLocationOnScreen.HasValue || (Motion.WindowToForeground ?? false))
          						EnsureWindowIsForeground();
          
          					if (mouseLocationOnScreen.HasValue)
          					{
          						User32.SetCursorPos((int)mouseLocationOnScreen.Value.A, (int)mouseLocationOnScreen.Value.B);
          
          						Thread.Sleep(MouseEventTimeDistanceMilli);
          					}
          
          					var mouseSetAction = new[]
          					{
          						Motion?.MouseButtonDown?.Select(button => new KeyValuePair<MouseButtonIdEnum, bool>(button, true)),
          						Motion?.MouseButtonUp?.Select(button => new KeyValuePair<MouseButtonIdEnum, bool>(button, false)),
          					}.ConcatNullable().ToArray();
          
          					if (0 < mouseSetAction?.Length)
          					{

          					{
          						Motion?.MouseButtonDown?.Select(button => new KeyValuePair<MouseButtonIdEnum, bool>(button, true)),
          						Motion?.MouseButtonUp?.Select(button => new KeyValuePair<MouseButtonIdEnum, bool>(button, false)),
          					}.ConcatNullable().ToArray();
          
          					if (0 < mouseSetAction?.Length)
          					{
          						foreach (var mouseAction in mouseSetAction)
          							mouseActionFromButtonIdAndState?.TryGetValueOrDefault(mouseAction)?.Invoke(InputSimulator.Mouse);
          
          						Thread.Sleep(MouseEventTimeDistanceMilli);
          					}
          
          					Motion?.KeyDown?.ForEach(keyDown =>
          					{
          						EnsureWindowIsForeground();
          						InputSimulator.Keyboard.KeyDown(keyDown);
          						Thread.Sleep(KeyboardEventTimeDistanceMilli);
          					});
          
          					Motion?.KeyUp?.ForEach(keyUp =>

Therefore my suggestion to achieve the slight delay is to download and try the latest version from Releases · Arcitectus/Sanderling · GitHub

OK, I got it working. The standard delay of 140 ms is too long for eve and so it recognizes a double click as two single clicks, it works properly with a delay of 120 ms.
Thanks.
