• it would be great if there was the ability of stacking multiple things to one rule by use of logic controls (AND, OR, etc). Also choosing what happens when an email is sent. Image sent from which camera. Maybe a delay or timer function to select more accurately the reference image when triggered

(e.g. WHEN "Analytic Even" AT "LPR Camera" EVENT TYPE "LPR -Any" AND "Input on Camera" At "Side View Camera" then.... ACTION "Send email" AND "Show Text Overlay" AND "Trigger output".

Send image from Camera “LPR Camera” 10 seconds before event to email address xxx)

  Hi Matthew,

  I know our dev team is working on improving the rules engine. The outlines are not finalized, but and, or, etc. should be part of it. I don't expect any changes in 4.0, probably you would see the changes in 4.1.

  yeah, we are working on this... This is some big change we are preparing for, and it will happen. But we are trying to be careful and test everything thoroughly. 
  
  First, we will release our new internal engine that will allow implementing this logic.
  This means that no big changes in terms of functionally, but the internal engine will be changed, and all old rules will migrate to the new engine.
  We plan this in 4.2.
  
  After that, somewhere after 4.2, we will release adding multiple events (with OR separator) and multiple actions.
  
  And only after that will we add AND-OR logic to events. So it will take some time.
  
  You can take a look at mockups and plans in this related topic

  What is the progress on this matter, the latest update is from 3 years ago and I don't see anything similar in the current version.

  Any update on this, 
  Having the ability to group similar rules would be very beneficial.
  All our systems are deployed on construction projects, Currently if a client decides to work late / weekends, we need to go in and adjust 6 rules to make this happen.
  
  Additionally,  having the ability to Arm/disarm the system via a soft trigger is becoming a client expectation not an advanced feature.
