I'm trying to batch process a bunch of scenes and then submit them all to deadline from hython inside TOPs. When I run the python code in Houdini, the submission to deadline works, but when I try to run it inside TOP's using a Houdini server and a command send TOP it does nothing. Any thoughts on why this code doesn't work in that context?

rops = hou.node('/stage/ropnet/').allSubChildren()
for r in rops:
    if r.type().name() == "deadline":
        r.parm('dl_Submit').pressButton()

I’d like to add that the exact same code works in a hython session, so something about how PDG is running it is not the same as a standard hython session.
