Connect to FTP servers as and when it's needed within the scenario instead of just in the beginning when it's initiated
Jonas Skafte
Please consider this as I've experienced that runs have failed because it took too long for the scenario to get to the part where it should have uploaded a file to the FTP. The scenario didn't fail or take too long, but the connection to the FTP was shut down whilst it was waiting for modules before it to complete. I do not have access to the FTP settings and therefore cannot change the 'opening' time for the connection, but this could be fixed if Make made it possible to connect as and when it was needed rather than when the scenario is initiated – or both; as and when needed as well as when initiated... Thanks!

Don't start connection to the server at scenario initialisation

Currently, the connection to the server happens when the scenario initializes even if the SFTP module is not the first to launch. This means that the operation done with the SFTP module happens after the start of the scenario, and if before such module runs after some time (for example because some operations are done before), the module could find that the connection timed out. It would be better to establish the connection to the server directly when the module is launched.
