User defined events about demoinfocs-golang HOT 3 CLOSED

Thanks for the suggestion, but unfortunately I don't understand what you mean.
(The higher goal makes sense but I don't see how your intended solution would look like right now).

Can you rephrase it and/or post the current, slow solution?

from demoinfocs-golang.

Aim: As I said, I need to make some game situation checking before or after an event has been occurred (lets named pre/post checking events). Let's say, there is a feature named first kill, which the total number of first kills made by a player each round. In order to a first kill being valid, the killer needs to be survived after 2 seconds of kill event. So, I need to schedule a post checking event 2 seconds after this kill event.
Naive solution: A very naive solution will be a scheduler implementation. There would be a list of pre/post checking events already specified in which ticks they will be executed. On each tickEnd, the scheduler iterates all event list and checks whether an event is needed to be executed. However, the solution will be slow that's because, on each tickEnd, you need to check all listed pre/post checking events.
Proposed solution: What I suggest is that instead, Is there any way to implement these pre/post checking events using generic event you implemented and adding/inserting the parser parsing path. So, when the tick occurs, the parser will dispatch these events just like any other events like kill, death, etc. This will provide enormous flexibility to the user to implement own custom events and these events can be triggered when they are supposed to occur. Another benefit is that the user can use his / her own custom events only registering an event handler (For all ideas, I suppose, I have already known in which tick each pre/post checking event should occur).

I'm not sure if there would really be a too big performance improvement. We could skip the reflection calls needed for TickEnd but that's about it, the rest would be the same implementation as the 'naive' version, just inside the library. It would have the same speed as if you did it yourself.

Or am I missing something?

The lib also used to support custom events in a different way but it wasn't really useful and got removed.
