Event Queing

I tried running a search on this, but didn't quite find what I was looking for.

Basically, I was curious how events are queued. If one event occurs in the middle of a sub, is it saved? ran immediately etc....

What if multiple events occur? (one occurs before another event finishes...)

I've gotten different results from testing (sometimes events seem to be just passed by if enough lag occurs) so I was curious about the how things are handled in theory...

what about having some sort of global variable that needs to be 0 for events to go off?

maybe doing something like this in the events so they dont overlap?

Code: Select all

sub event_something
/if happening==0 {
/varset happening 1
****do whatever it is your event was for
/varset happening 0
}
/return

hmm, would that work?

im gonna play with it when i get home
i think this is what i need for my rangerbuddy mac as well haha
