Anyways, always be sure to check the mailing list archives
before posting to this list, this topic has come up a few
times in the past.
WAIT_STATE simply keeps a character from entering another
command for a certain ammount of time (measured in tics).
This is to keep a player from doing something like this:
c 'fireball' fido
c 'fireball' fido
c 'fireball' fido
c 'fireball' fido
c 'fireball' fido
c 'fireball' fido
and decimating Fido before he actually has a chance to fight
back.
Cheers,
-FIRE
p.s. Don't ask where to find the archives, in case you don't
know. The flames could get pretty bad :P
