Seems that ruby's on startup have problems to use other stuff from other startup-rubys.

Hm.. maybe you're calling a ruby that isn't loaded. Have you added an require statement for all the rubys you depend on?

Cannot be true, because the error come from inside the add_entities-code.
Otherwise the error would tell about unknown method.

I tried a 'sleep' with some diferent values without any success.

I had it yet for closing the outliner.
With my workaround it is working fine now.
