Scheduler

Scheduling is made simple with Lumiere by using useLifecycleEvent.
LifecycleEvent lets you listen to any event that takes deltaTime as its only parameter.

luau

useLifecycleEvent(RunService.PostSimulation):connect(function(deltaTime)
    -- this runs every frame
    print(`{deltaTime} seconds have passed since the last frame`)
end)

That's nice, you now have some code that runs every frame. However, what if you wanted to read the text being output while the game is running?
The output's going way too fast to possibly read all the text, but Lumiere's got the solution.

You can define a fixed framerate with :withFixedFramerate. (bonus: it's chainable)

luau

useLifecycleEvent(RunService.PostSimulation)
    :withFixedFramerate(1)
    :connect(function(deltaTime)
        -- ...
    end)

INFO

Low frames? Lumiere's got you covered. LifecycleEvent compensates for low framerate by running the callback as many times as it needs.

Great, but our code should run in parallel. Of course, LifecycleEvent lets you do just that.

luau

useLifecycleEvent(RunService.PostSimulation)
    :withFixedFramerate(1)
    :connectParallel(function(deltaTime)
        -- ...
    end)

You can learn more about LifecycleEvent at the API Reference.
