Hello, I am having a problem with Zobot using Plugs.

Here is my current flow:

When I run the flow, I should immediately see the messages from the initial cards (Send Message cards), then after running the plug, and finally, see the messages after the plug is executed.

However, my plug can take a few seconds to execute, as it retrieves data from external systems. To highlight this behavior, I built a plug that makes a request to the public API https://httpbin.org/delay/10, which intentionally waits 10 seconds to return a response. Here is the code for my “ExperimentalDelay” plug:

When this happens, Zobot does not display the first two messages immediately. The bot forces the plug to run, which takes 10 seconds, and only after that does it display the initial and final messages of the flow one after the other.

This is not the right experience, as I want to display a message to the user that the bot is searching for information and may take a few seconds. And only after the plug executes, display the messages that come after the plug execution.
