Pause between commands in scripts

[BeE-tje]

Does somebody know how you can insert a pause between running commands in a script. For example:

I have 2 gameservers which I wanna start at startup wit my linux box. But because of heavy load every 30 minutes, I wanna start them up 5 minutes later .. so I do not have the double load.


#!/bin/bash
/home/user1/script_run
#pause
/home/user1/script_run

Can somebody help me on this ?

Thanks !!
