multiple event cases ?

I hear people saying do not use multiple event cases.
 
is this in reference to multiple event cases in the same loop?
 
is it ok to use 1 event structure per parallel loop?
 
what happens if you have two parallel loops reacting to the same event?

Only way you will come to know is try it Smiley Very Happy. But yes, event cases are a bit risky option. Use only one in a loop.

Who are these people??! There is nothing wrong with an event structure containing multiple event cases. 🙂

Yes, you should only have one event structure per loop, but that event structure can have multiple cases.

Yes. What makes you think otherwise?

Nothing unusual. They will both fire whenever that associated event occurs. No problem!
