The idea was to execute all thread on every frame, and having a yield() native
function somewhere in the script that would stop execution for the current
frame. This, in addition to lambda abstraction, allows a very clean
implementation of all current wait condition and much more.
Pseudo code below:
def wait(cond:lambda)
{
while (cond())
yield()
}
But surely Marvelous can help you on this.
Have a nice day,
Steph
