[Repast-developer] Schedule question

[Andy C. <ac...@ll...>]

So, what would happen if one scheduled an action for the same time that the 
action currently being executed is scheduled for? Whatever the answer, is 
it an intended or unintended result?

My guess from look at ScheduleBase is that there would be a problem... but 
*perhaps* what would happen is that ScheduleBase would first come into the 
current tick, collect up all of the actions at the current tick, loop over 
them, and if in the course of looping over those actions new actions were 
added for that same tick, when the scheduler got to the end of the first 
group of actions, it would then just see the same "tick" as the tick at the 
top of the priority queue and repeat the same loop.

I realize there are valid questions about whether one should even be 
*allowed* to do this, but in the meantime, I'm just wondering what the 
designers think should happen with a tiny bit of explanation...

Best,
Andy
