A way to defer funcs by a number of frames #43

Closed XeroOl closed 2 years ago

XeroOl commented 2 years ago

I added defer= to funcs, you can set defer=true to delay by a frame, or defer=n to delay by n frames

I still need to do this

The reason this hasn't happened yet is that it causes there to not be a canonical order to funcs. This messes up a ton of assumptions that are being made in the mirin template backend, so I need to think longer about how to make this work and also stay consistent.

ie, 

func {0, function() print('a') end}
func {1, function() print('b') end, delay = 1} --
func {60, function() print('c') end}

Would print 'abc' if played from front to end, but acb if started after beat 60. I have no idea under what circumstances this is desired and under what circumstances it isn't.

After consideration by Xero, this functionality would conflict with how func is currently setup in the template and would cause several sorting issues if implemented.
