Sikuli IDE command wait("image") not waiting for image to appear before script continues
I am new to Sikuli and am trying it out with a very simple script that looks like this...
wait and click cmds are used and they are working, The issue i am facing is wait("1513068228396.png",3600) is not waiting until image appears,, it waits for some 10 to 15 secs and executes next cmd. I tried including some Logs, and also tried with other images to same wait cmd, still same result.
wait("1513067960826.png",60)
click(Pattern("1513066493827.png").targetOffset(-106,2))
sleep(2)
click("1513066637741.png")
sleep(1)
click("1513599247108.png")
sleep(5)
print "wait for my image"
wait("1513068228396.png",3600) # Facing issue in this line
print "found my image"
outputLog :
wait for my image

found my image
Any suggestion how to solve this issue.
Answer
Maybe that image have a similarity with some region in the screen. You could try to set the similarity to the highest value:
wait(Pattern("some_image.png").similar(0.8),) # if you want the 80% of similarity
wait(Pattern("some_image.png").exact()) # if you want the 100% of similarity
Also, I encourage you to use if exists instead of wait. Wait will end the program if the image doesn't exist:
if exists(Pattern("some_image.png").exact(),3600):
click("some_image.png")
You can find Pattern documentation here
