Question on global parameters with DelphesPythia8

Description

Hello

I am trying to define some global parameters as shown here
https://cp3.irmp.ucl.ac.be/projects/delphes/wiki/WorkBook/ConfigFile

so what I do is like

set SkipEvents 1000
set MaxEvents 5
set ExecutionPath {...
}

but I actually see when running DelphesPythia8 (3.4.2pre15) is that these are ignored (ie always starting from the first event and processing more than 10 as requesting)

Can you please advice here ?

Thanks

SkipEvents and MaxEvents are only implemented in DelphesHepMC, DelphesLHEF and DelphesSTDHEP.

In case of DelphesPythia8, the number of events to generate is defined in the .cmnd file as Main:numberOfEvents.
