Scheduled actions
From Lasers-Enigma Documentation
Introduction
Most components can support scheduled actions.
It's basically a wait to make actions like rotating or changing colors done in a loop. That's very useful for 2 reasons:
- Players will have to synchronize themselves with what's done automatically. They will have to think several moves ahead.
- It's heavily configurable so it multiplies the possibilities offered by the plugin.
