Do 0.0 timers execute callbacks in order?

Rising_Dusk	Quick question that I'm unable to test myself right now. If I have two timers and do this... JASS: call TimerStart(MyTimer1, 0., false, function SomeFunc) call TimerStart(MyTimer2, 0., false, function SomeFunc) Will MyTimer1 hit the callback first? Or will MyTimer2? Or is it random?

Skater	Just check it with something like this: JASS: if GetExpiredTimer()==Timer1 then call BJDebugMsg("Timer1 expires") else call BJDebugMsg("Timer2 expires") endif Ofcourse you need global timer.

If I were home, I would have already tested it instead of asking.

Vexorian	we don't need to know. I once discussed something related to this with weaaddar, the best thing for 0 seconds timers is to just use a queue for the data instead of attaching things, in case two 0 timers were started like this, the queue would simply do the things in order, which I guess is the expected behavior. It would be odd though if it was random, don't know how to test anyways

Ammorth	As far as my tests showed, they do execute in order.
