PULSE BOX

1. Problem Statement

Struggling to manage several events that may occur within the same sequence? You’re not alone: even a well-structured state system can behave inconsistently when timers, repeated checks, and dependent reactions are added. One event may activate several times, while another receives no response because checks occur in the wrong order. Delays, waiting periods, and recurring cycles may also create conflicts between separate mechanics. Without a clear event map, it can be difficult to determine which part of the system should respond first.

2. Solution

This course will teach you how to build event-based logic with a defined execution order. You will examine timers, event queues, repeated reactions, waiting periods, and stopping rules. The materials help distinguish one-time events from actions that may repeat under specific conditions. Practical assignments show how to review several active processes within one scenario. By the end of the course, you will create a system in which states, events, and timing rules operate as one coordinated sequence.

3. What’s Inside

Module 1: Event-Driven Logic

Explore how events initiate state changes, checks, and following actions. This module explains the difference between an initial event, an intermediate reaction, and a closing outcome.

Module 2: Timers and Delayed Actions

Learn how to document timing intervals, delays, and conditions that must be met before an action begins. The assignment asks you to create a scenario containing three different timing rules.

Module 3: Cooldowns and Repeated Inputs

Study waiting periods and the control of repeated commands. You will define when an action may occur again and when the system should temporarily ignore another signal.

Module 4: Event Queues

Build a queue containing several events and determine their processing order. A separate exercise examines a situation in which two events attempt to change the same state.

Module 5: Parallel System Behavior

Explore scenarios where several processes operate at the same time. The materials show how to define boundaries between them and prevent unwanted interference.

Module 6: Interruptions and Resets

Examine action interruption, return to an initial state, and sequence restoration. You will create rules for cancellation, restart, and event completion.

Module 7: Pulse Box Event Project

Combine timers, an event queue, repeated reactions, and interruption rules. The final project includes an event map, a timing-condition table, and a collection of review scenarios.

4. Who Is This For?

✅ Suitable if you:

• have worked with states, conditions, and branching logic;
• want to explore event-based systems;
• plan to create mechanics containing timing rules;
• want to manage repeated actions more clearly;
• are prepared to examine several active processes.

❌ Not for you if you:

• are not yet familiar with the basic structure of game logic;
• need only introductory material;
• do not plan to complete diagrams and review scenarios;
• expect a course centered on a named program.
