movement_packet 
A packet of information that describes the current state of a moving object
Vars | |
existing_loops | Assoc list of subsystems -> loop datum. Only one datum is allowed per subsystem |
---|---|
parent | Our parent atom |
running_loop | The move loop that's currently running |
Procs | |
add_loop | Adds a loop to our parent. Returns the created loop if a success, null otherwise |
contest_running_loop | Attempts to contest the current running move loop. Returns TRUE if the loop is active, FALSE otherwise |
decide_on_running_loop | Tries to figure out the current favorite loop to run. More complex then just deciding between two different loops, assumes no running loop currently exists |
