  • Female wings
  • Male wings
gollark: What queue and why does it not work?
gollark: Do you really need to post a screen of uncommented mysterious code directly in discord?
gollark: Plus associated functions to suspend coroutines and whatnot.
gollark: ```luawhile run do local ev = {cy()} for ID, co in pairs(coroutines) do if coroutine.status(co.coroutine) == "dead" then co.status = "dead" co.running = false end if co.running then _G.process.running_ID = ID local ok, err = coroutine.resume(co.coroutine, table.unpack(ev)) if not ok then if co.error_handler then co.error_handler(err) else run = false error = err end end end endend```is what I have for that.
gollark: When I say "process" I mean "coroutine with fancy metadata being run in a loop".
