Behavior when messages are chained in OmniServer upon timeout

I have my host messages chained together in OmniServer so that each successive message occurs "On Success" of the previous message.  When I have timeouts or communications problems during execution of the chain, how does OmniServer process the remaining messages?

OmniServer has a default message retry count of three.  This means that when a message does not receive a response, OmniServer will try sending that message again three times before failing.

When messages are chained to be sent after the previous message success and there is a timeout after three retries, OmniServer returns to the beginning of the message chain and starts over again.

For example, you have five messages chained together.  OmniServer has sent messages one through 3 and received responses.  OmniServer is now processing message four and has retried three times with no responses.  OmniServer will now return to message one and start processing the messages from the beginning.
