This is my personal DragScript for my AP nights … i dont have an observatory … just sleep and wake up before return home. Just wait night, shoot, stop peltier, wait dawn, restart peltier, do skyflat, collect data on external usb key drive , goodnight and shutdown.
I hope this can help , i just change the sequence blocks time (finish time match with repeat to have safe sequence), sequence file, copy and paste entire sequence block if i want to do more target.
You can see in image the script screenshot with under the result of this night, an ancient supernova remnant near SH2-91.

That is simple and clean, Leo—thanks for posting. I like to see examples of how others use DragScript because I always learn something new.

I like the repeat block until time - does this basically handle if there were clouds and it just keeps retrying?
Yes, in this way i reserved a slot of time for the sequence about the target, sequence will be restarted until reach the end of slot time. Its also a simple failover method.

This is very helpful.
If the sequence finishes before the time in the ‘repeat current block until’, does the sequence restart?

yes, i work for time slot …my experience teach me to not go for the precise number of shot !
More productive thinking in terms of time slot
If you check the IF OK you can decide to not restart and jump away to the next
