Handling execution timeouts and script injection errors in terminal sessions?

Hi,
I’ve been running into a bit of a frustrating hurdle while trying to modernize some of our older terminal workflows, and I’m curious if anyone here has found a reliable workaround. We’re attempting to automate a series of data entry tasks, but we keep hitting these intermittent execution timeouts. It seems like the emulator is losing its "focus" mid-script, which causes the whole automation string to just hang indefinitely until I manually refresh the session.

I’ve spent the morning looking into whether this is a resource allocation issue on the host side or if I just haven't configured the background processes correctly. I even tried a fresh delta download of our execution toolkit to see if updated libraries would resolve the handshake errors, but the script still seems to struggle with the timing between the commands and the UI response.

Has anyone else dealt with this kind of lag or "ghost" hanging during high-volume script runs? I’m starting to wonder if it’s a specific setting within the terminal profile itself that needs adjusting for better synchronization, or if I should be looking into a more robust way to handle these command injections. I’d really appreciate any advice or shared experiences on how to keep these sessions stable without having to babysit the execution logs all day.
