RuneJS is a RuneScape game server written in TypeScript and JavaScript. The goal of the project is to create a comprehensive game engine, while also providing simple and easy to use content development systems and APIs.
This PR implements a tick-based task system for Actors (Player/Npc) and the World.
The main practical difference between this implementation and the previous Behaviour system is that the tasks here are synchronized for all entities in the world, and delays are handled by tick count rather than by milliseconds.
There are a number of configuration options for a Task as well as some useful subtasks. You can read more about these in the attached README.md file. The current set of subtasks is a starting point, and we will surely want to create more for more interaction types.
There are a number of TODOs around adding unit tests, I would like to propose that we keep these included for now - currently the areas are difficult to test due to complications with mocking the player class, but I have been working on other PRs to improve this.
