[Ironpython-users] Gradually executing a python script

[Jesper Taxbøl]

Sorry for the spam, but the reason is that I am interrested is that I aim
to run my avatar's "ai" in a script like this:

while True:
   shoot == (sense == True)

Where the gameworld writes to the variable sense and reads from shoot.

The script will run forever and therefore needs to be updated gradually on
a lower level than script.

Kind regards and thanx for your time :)

 where I read and write to
