Boot Behaviour should use the sleep module
The sleep module allows you to pass in a function and a delay. The boot behaviour should use this, but instead it counts frames manually
@abma I'm concerned that this change could lead to problems as it will require a change to the C++ portion. If the lua is changed but the C++ portion isn't, then no ai object is created, and so no logic is loaded and the AI would be broken, can you think of a simple solution to keep backwards compatability, perhaps a check in ai.lua that would load boot.lua if tripped?
i don't understand: you commit into a single repository, so both can be updated at the same time.
how should someone only update the c++ part or the lua part?
Some people fetch the latest lua and update that part, but don't really understand the C++ part, more so Windows people than linux people.
I don't really have any metrics on what version is where, especially since every version of Shard of the last few years shows up as dev, but I know it happens

i hope these people recognize the relationship between overwriting files and something breaks...
i wouldn't care about this problem: basicly a real version can be used for now as the spring installer disallows to install over an existing spring installation since some time.
hmmm, those people would be forced to wait until the next engine release to do any meaningful work on the Shard lua though
no, it should be possible to take shard dll's from dev engine. if this doesn't work, the dev-version of spring must be used.
i don't see the requirement for backwards compatiblity: if its really required: (somehow) create an empty/dummy ai object. but i still think this isn't worth the time/work.
