[Rails-devel] Game Initialization within the EDT / AWT EventQueue

[Frederick W. <fre...@go...>]

In RunGame, I've found the following comment:
"We have to run loadGame on an AWT EventQueue to make sure that NDC
will properly initialize game key so that GameManager instance can be
properly queried for. This is a consequence of NDC abuse."

New games are also initialized within EDT since this is triggered by
the button pressed event.

So my question to Erik/Stefan/Brett:
What is the goal of (ab)using the EDT? Is it that only one game may be
started at the same time?
