Simulation mount not moving to target before executing EKOS Sequence Queue

The system is Fedora 36. Kstars is 'bleeding' from xsnrg.
I have created an EKOS Sequence Queue and an EKOS Scheduler List. The simulated mount is parked. I have cleared twilight and started Job processing. The simulated mount is not moving to the target before starting the sequence queue.
Mount control works. I am able to select a target and 'goto' the target.
This worked in a test run a couple of days ago with an HEQ5 mount and a Canon DSLR. I am hoping for clear skys and am trying to hone my sequence skills.

Can you try again, but enable "tracking" for the job?

Also, in case you've already got images in the destination directory, either clear "Remember Job Progress" from the scheduler options (KStarsSettings->ConfigureKStars->Ekos->Scheduler->RememberJobProgress) or use the "Repeat Until Termination" checkbox for your job.

Also, always use the Greedy Scheduler Algorithm (instead of Classic) though in this case (one job) it shouldn't matter.

For this test, I'd uncheck altitude as well, since you're testing in the afternoon (or use the Time menu in the main KStars window to set the time to some time at night).

Thank you. Tracking solved it. It slewed to the object before executing the capture script.

Track allready has a narrow well defined meaning. I would suggest another term such as 'goto' would be closer.
