Scripted Behavior Removal

#1 Without looking too deeply at it, I'd try something like this:

%this.owner.schedule(10,removeBehavior,%this);

#2 Ace, thanks Brian - I didn't think of scheduling...

Cheers,

Martin

#3 @Martin:

The reason it crashes is that calling %this.owner.removeBehavior() will delete the behavior that is currently executing the script that called it and so pulls the rug out from under itself so to speak and - boom crash.

Perhaps a safeRemoveBehavior() is called for that defers the removal until it is safe to do so (just like safeDelete() for scene objects).

#4 @Neo:

Yeah I thought as much, thanks for clarifying that.

I'm new to TorqueScript but I've worked with custom scripting engines in the past, and whenever a script performed a 'non-trivial' action (Basically anything that could interfere with the architecture side of things, such as scene management or rearranging internals), these were queued for execution at the earliest safe opportunity.
