Event prioritization

[Max Power]

I need to implement priority on events in an event player but running into issues with the syntax given in the documentation.  Currently have a race condition with a bonus collect/reset.

My events are in the following format. What needs to be modified to make them fire in the listed order?

event_player: 

  ball_starting: 

    - cmd_flippers_enable 

    - cmd_autofire_coils_enable 

    - cmd_drop_targets_reset

Thanks,

Max

Hello Max-

The list-based format you have above is the "express" format for quick lists that don't require additional parameters. To add priority, you need to switch from a list-style to a dictionary-style, like so:

event_player:

  ball_starting:

    cmd_flippers_enable:

      priority: 100

    cmd_autofire_coils_enable:

      priority: 200

    cmd_drop_targets_reset:

      priority: 10

Hope that helps!

That is what I was looking for, thanks. Now we have a good example for the documentation.
