Hello,

I wrote a bot program that is supposed to shutdown himself when a specific
avatar tells him 'bot14 close'.

But it seems that because the aw_wait function is still active during this
time my prgram bugs !

I was thinking about maybe Roland could implement a function that stops
waiting, or is there another way to face my problem ?

thank you

You can set flags in your callback functions that are checked in the main
program loop.

bool finish = 0;
main() {
while (aw_wait(1000)) {
if (finish == 1) break;
}
}
void chat_callback() {
if (chat message == "quit") finish = 1;
}

Make sure that the finish flag is global or at least addressable by both
functions.
