Removing a Telegram listener during discharge will cause other listeners to be ignored

Issue details
If you have two listeners to a message, and the first one removes itself upon receiving that message, the other listener will not get the message delivered.
I believe it is because of the way the for loop is constructed in the discharge method
Array<Telegraph> listeners = msgListeners.get(telegram.message);
if (listeners != null) {
for (int i = 0; i < listeners.size; i++) {
if (listeners.get(i).handleMessage(telegram)) {
handledCount++;
}
}
}
Reproduction steps/code
Create two listeners to the same message
Have the first remove itself as a listener during the onMessageRecieved call
The second listener will not get the call
Version of gdx-ai and/or relevant dependencies
1.8.0
Mmmmm... I see your problem, but can't find a super-easy fix.
I'd say you have 2 options:
- Can't you just use
Gdx.app.postRunnable
to unregister the listener on next rendering cycle? This workaround should solve the issue in your code. 👀 - PR welcome 😄
Yea, postRunnable is what I went with, along with refactoring my states so I can avoid removing as well.
I couldn't see an easy fix straight away either, otherwise I would have PR'd :)
I will have a think on it though.
Thanks for making an awesome extension.
