Properties
eventOrder
Event order - this establishes the order we run relative to other events scheduled to run at the same game clock time. Lowest number goes first. By default, we provide an event order of 100, which should leave plenty of room for custom events before and after default events.
isPromptDaemon
by default, we’re not a per-command-prompt daemon
nextRunTime
our next execution time, expressed in game clock time; by default, we’ll set this to nil, which means that we are not scheduled to execute at all
Methods
construct (obj, prop)OVERRIDDEN
creation
delayEvent (turns)
delay our scheduled run time by the given number of turns
getNextRunTime ( )
our next run time, in game clock time
removeEvent ( )
remove this event from the event manager
