    Like half of my job is writing .bat files to automate stuff locally and not tell my boss that all I do anymore is double click the right things in the right order…

        only if they keep the it room as dark as possible and whenever someone walks in for help they jump up onto the desk with a flashlight and yell "I’M BATMAN’ while wearing a cape and underpants.

      You can put in a timeout command at the end, and then call the next .bat file.

      For example “TIMEOUT /T 60” waits for 60 seconds before resuming, or you can override it by pressing any key.

      So if you know how long the wait time between scripts is, just write a master.bat and call them in order, with adequate waiting time in between.
