[SCRIPTING] Global time queue

@Mikali wrote:

For my mod, I need to have a queue of commands that are triggered when the game timer reaches certain values. For instance, I have a currentGameTime which keeps track of the current time, in seconds. I also have a queue such as the following:

globalTimeQueue =
{
	{54, "SquadHasArrived(1, 1)",},
	{75, "SquadHasArrived(1, 2)",},
	{128, "SquadHasArrived(1, 3)",},
}

The first number is the time in seconds. The command to execute is stored in a string. In this case one of the commands is SquadHasArrived(1, 3), where 1 is the player index and 3 is the fleet index. The problem is, I might need to go back and remove the command before it is executed and insert a replacement. Is there a good way to accomplish this? Is there a better structure to the global time queue? Thanks!
