Sequencer v2

[Not very] simple replacement for bunch of timer blocks

Back when I found a fatal flaw in Easy Automation (it wasn't written by me). This is major update for my attempt to fix this issue :). Basically, this is what first version was intended to be.

Features:
- multiple scripts executed by one block
- simultaneous execution of multiple scripts
- ability to start actions
- ability to change properties
- ability to run another programmable block
- ability to change text on lcd screen
- ability to send remote message
- wait for time period with sub second precision
- transparent save/load handling
- player input handling with Digi's Control Module


Digi's Control Module is optional, but it you want to handle input - you can found it there: https://steamhost.cn/steamcommunity_com/workshop/filedetails/?id=655948251


Demos:
"Ravric's Auroras Solar Array" - a simple sequncing demo (Ravric allowed me to use his creation): https://steamhost.cn/steamcommunity_com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=972470747
"IC Turtle E" - vtol and airlock: https://steamhost.cn/steamcommunity_com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=1085533957
"Ant" - use of Control Module, variables and tuples: https://steamhost.cn/steamcommunity_com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=1711835561

Installation:
- Install Programmable block ("Sequencer")
- Load Sequencer v2 script in "Sequencer"
- Put your code into Custom Data of "Sequencer"
- Every time then code changed you need to run "Sequencer" with "reset" or "parse" argument

Short language reference available inside the script.

Also full guide is available there:

Many thanks to jamesmuell for help in development


User script debug:
Sometimes things does not works as expected.
You can use debug output to check why something does not work.
By default Sequencer shows only serious situations, but you can use /loglevel command to change that.
Will show all awaitable logging categories and its current levels.
/loglevel <cateroty|all> <newlevel>
will set level for specivied category. "all" will set loglevel for all categoties.
Available levels:
0 - none: no logs.
1 - error: something which causes Sequencer script to stop. It this message was shown - probably something is terribly broken.
2 - warning: Default level. Logs important transitions and user script troubles (like attempt to assign unsuported property)
3 - verbose: Log almost every action. Probably you want to set "imp" category to this level while you writting a script.


Also this script (as any another my script) supports DebugSrv v2 for logging.
