Detailed Description
The server specifies the GameLogic interface.
Someone building their own game server, using the Server class, needs to provide an object which implements the GameLogic interface. This is where the storyteller can place all the logic specific to their game, independent of the framework.
This is essentially a callback interface, to which the server will delegate for game decisions. Through this interface, game developers can specify how the rules for their game can influence objects, players, etc.
See game_logic for a reference implementation.
At the moment, this is still experimental! It will be refactored as it is used more extensively.
WARNING: All methods must be threadsafe! Be careful about what you do here, since game logic methods are typically called from the main execution thread. Methods are appended with the TS suffix to remind implementors to keep them threadsafe.
