Im looking to be able to do something like:

#FORALL @queue {%i}
queue = ""

but it seems that if my queue has a lot of elements that sometimes more MUD text is received before the queue operation has finished.

If I write to the queue as a result of receiving new text the forall quits, and I don't get half the things I need performed done.

Is there a way to force #FORALL to complete before receiving new text from the MUD? or is there another funtion that does a similar operation?

basically it looks as though all of the #LOOP commands act the same way, I think there is some sort of output delay on them... not what I want.

Any help would be appreciated

tried copying the queue to another var and letting it run from there?
this way the original queue can accumulate and not interfere.

I would rather have it do what I want, then have to make a workaround.

Also, I would prefer to have a solution using zuggs language, but if someone can do this in javascript or something else that would be ok...

(I dont know if I would know how to make a javascript one by myself however.)

#PRIORITY {#while (!%null(@queue)) {%pop(@queue)}}

would this work?

Oh my gosh, yes, thank you I didn't know about the Priority command! I'll look to see if it will work, but that shows great promise!
