1) Run first part 2) Write output and load into external program 3) Wait until second script file loads successfully 4) Run second part 5) Write output You should slow down the loop somehow to spare resources. I'm not sure if there is an actual sleep command but if graphics is enabled you might use for example a moveto command which allows to set the time for execution.
