Also, as events should not interrupt each other, but instead they are said to be enqueued, it is unclear, whether or not a [[Timer]] event placed on the queue is replaced with the equivalent of the current state, if events in the queue before the timer event change the state.

Within states LSL works on events, such as the scripted object starting to move (Moving_start), colliding with things (Collision_start) or timer events (Timer).

Apparently at least the State_exit and State_entry events are local to the state. It is said that a timer set by LlSetTimerEvent is not automatically reset by state changes, but not whether or not the timer still invokes the Timer event from the original state or the current state. Also, as events should not interrupt each other, but instead they are said to be enqueued, it is unclear, whether or not a Timer event placed on the queue is replaced with the equivalent of the current state, if events in the queue before the timer event change the state.
