Requesting help to add "TakeDelay" into my pickup and repair blocks with E

[mrsaltys1x1]

The TakeDelays do not work.  The rest is great. Can any one maybe perhaps tell me why and how?

TakeDelay appears to couple with blocks that have a specific class association, or at least reference to a class even if it remains blank.

Try adding <property name="Class" value=""/>

Consider also that certain lights starting with industrial already contain <property name="TakeDelay" value="-1"/> and are best served with a <set> for their specific entries.

There may well be a hardcoding element at play if nothing works out that would require a Harmony Patch.
