Event Dispatch

Unsorted things related to event engine:

• Each entity has it's own Event Queue
• Events can be processed by multiple threads
• Exactly the same event object can be put into multiple queues.
• Low level events like entity's Control State Changes, entity collisions, targeting, actions, timers,
• System level events : entity creation,destruction,instance changes etc.
• passing events to/from scripting language modules.
• prioritizing events (discarding non-essential events when system is overloaded)
• physics simulation 'ticks'
• hard bounds on event processing times
• complex event processing?
  • event pattern detectors (parts of NPC AI, world monitoring etc.)
  • detecting long-range patterns (up to 8h)?
