Ticks

Summary

Ticks are the basic time measurement in IL. They are equivalent to 50 000 microseconds (1/20th of a second). They're used in various modules for a fixed timestep.

Events

The engine will create a tick event every 1/20th of a second if it's able to run at full speed. This event will have the id IL_BASE_TICK and is defined in base.h.
