I have a problem with a trigger node inside a link-in/link out sequence called by a link call node.
All the messages that are 'swallowed' by the trigger node to extend delay cause timeout errors.
[flows.json](https://discourse.nodered.org/uploads/short-url/6RcRn7SzqyrfmlmXYtBV0wHPpf2.json) (3.2 KB)
It seems as if all messages in must result in a message out. Is there any way around this?

The timeout error comes from the link call node.
You can use a catch node to intercept and handle or ignore these errors.

That seems as a good idea. I believe the errors from the link call node can safely be ignored.
