Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.
I'm always frustrated when scripts time out when being executed.

Describe the solution you'd like
For each script in script manager add a setting to specify a script time out, which is loaded when selecting the script from Run Scripts instead of defaulting to 30 Seconds, this will allow longer running scripts to not timeout so often.

Describe alternatives you've considered
Remembering to set longer timeouts when running the script.

Additional context

I agree each script should have its own default timeout. Some scripts run for 8 hours and some for 5 seconds. Not everyone knows what the proper timeout should be.

Alternatively I have considered trying to change the default timeout to 8 hours which may cause other unknown issues.
