This simple example blocks concurrent calls, and replaces a Utility.Wait(X) call with a RegisterForSingleUpdate(X) call. If we used Utility.Wait(X), we'd suspend our stack for X seconds; by using RegisterForSingleUpdate and OnUpdate, we get rid of the stack entirely during those X seconds, and create a new stack to continue processing after the delay. | This simple example blocks concurrent calls, and replaces a Utility.Wait(X) call with a RegisterForSingleUpdate(X) call.

Even if we didn't prevent concurrency using <code>pbBusy</code>, we'd still get rid of all OnHit stacks at the start of the wait, and create just one OnUpdate stack at the end of the wait; however, with every hit, the wait time would be reset to X seconds. | |||
