Event Queue
Added: August 9, 2026
Definition
A place where upcoming events are stored and executed in the correct order.
The Problem That Led to It
Imagine 100 agents generate actions at different times. Without ordering, the simulator wouldn’t know which action happens first.
What Problem It Solves
It orders events by timestamp + priority.
Easy Wording
“A waiting line that decides which event happens next.”
Layman Example
Like a hospital queue: urgent patients are handled before normal patients.
Technical Example
10:01 Agent A → sees fire 10:02 Agent B → runs away 10:03 Agent C → calls emergency
The queue executes them in order.
Limitation
It only orders events; it does not decide what an event actually changes.
Solution
State Transition decides how that event changes the system.
