FlightControl 1f90c0c766 Fixed respawn bug in AI_BALANCER + Scheduler bug
AI_BALANCER respawns back the AI. Bug was in the FSM. In a transition,
when states are the same, the events SHOULD execute.
Added spawn delay interval option API SetSpawnInterval().
Bug that prevented AI_BALANCER to start if multiple AI_BALANCERs is also
fixed.
Fixed bug in scheduler dispatcher. Multiple schedules for the same
scheduler work now too!

--- This module contains the AI_BALANCER class.
--
-- ===
--
-- 1) @{AI.AI_Balancer#AI_BALANCER} class, extends @{Core.Fsm#FSM_SET}
-- ===================================================================================
-- The @{AI.AI_Balancer#AI_BALANCER} class monitors and manages as many AI GROUPS as there are
-- CLIENTS in a SET_CLIENT collection not occupied by players.
-- The AI_BALANCER class manages internally a collection of AI management objects, which govern the behaviour
-- of the underlying AI GROUPS.
--
-- The parent class @{Core.Fsm#FSM_SET} manages the functionality to control the Finite State Machine (FSM)
-- and calls for each event the state transition methods providing the internal @{Core.Fsm#FSM_SET.Set} object containing the
-- SET_GROUP and additional event parameters provided during the event.
--
-- 1.1) AI_BALANCER construction method
-- ---------------------------------------
-- Create a new AI_BALANCER object with the @{#AI_BALANCER.New} method:
--
-- * @{#AI_BALANCER.New}: Creates a new AI_BALANCER object.
--
-- 1.2)
-- ----
-- * Add
-- * Remove
--
-- 1.2) AI_BALANCER returns AI to Airbases
-- ------------------------------------------
-- You can configure to have the AI to return to:
--
-- * @{#AI_BALANCER.ReturnToHomeAirbase}: Returns the AI to the home @{Wrapper.Airbase#AIRBASE}.
-- * @{#AI_BALANCER.ReturnToNearestAirbases}: Returns the AI to the nearest friendly @{Wrapper.Airbase#AIRBASE}.

-- **API CHANGE HISTORY**
-- ======================
--
-- The underlying change log documents the API changes. Please read this carefully. The following notation is used:
--
-- * **Added** parts are expressed in bold type face.
-- * _Removed_ parts are expressed in italic type face.
--
-- Hereby the change log:
--
-- 2016-08-17: SPAWN:**InitCleanUp**( SpawnCleanUpInterval ) replaces SPAWN:_CleanUp_( SpawnCleanUpInterval )
--
-- * Want to ensure that the methods starting with **Init** are the first called methods before any _Spawn_ method is called!
-- * This notation makes it now more clear which methods are initialization methods and which methods are Spawn enablement methods.
--
-- ===
--
-- AUTHORS and CONTRIBUTIONS
-- =========================
--
-- ### Contributions:
--
-- * **Dutch_Baron (James)**: Who you can search on the Eagle Dynamics Forums.
-- Working together with James has resulted in the creation of the AI_BALANCER class.
-- James has shared his ideas on balancing AI with air units, and together we made a first design which you can use now :-)
--
-- * **SNAFU**:
-- Had a couple of mails with the guys to validate, if the same concept in the GCI/CAP script could be reworked within MOOSE.
-- None of the script code has been used however within the new AI_BALANCER moose class.
