UgLib.Async

UgLib.Async.WaitFor(check, timeout?, interval?) -> ok, value
UgLib.Async.Timeout(ms, fn) -> cancel
UgLib.Async.Debounce(fn, ms) -> function
UgLib.Async.Throttle(fn, ms) -> function

• WaitFor calls check every interval ms (default 0, every frame) until it returns a truthy value, for at most timeout ms (default 5000). ok is false on timeout. MUST run in a thread.
• Timeout runs fn after ms and returns a function that cancels it.
• Debounce returns a function that runs fn once calls stop for ms, with the arguments of the last call.
• Throttle returns a function that runs fn at most once per ms. The first call runs at once, calls in between are dropped.

Example

CreateThread(function()
    local ok, vehicle = UgLib.Async.WaitFor(function()
        local entity = NetworkGetEntityFromNetworkId(netId)

        return DoesEntityExist(entity) and entity
    end, 3000)
end)
