NAME
call_out - delayed execution of a function
SYNOPSIS
void call_out(string func, int delay, void|mixed arg)
DESCRIPTION
With this function you can delay the call of a name function
`func' for `delay' seconds. If `arg' is specified it is passed
as an argument to the function.
The value of "this_player()" in the function will be the same
as it was when "call_out" was called.
NOTA BENE
The smallest time-unit in the game is a heartbeat (2 seconds).
This means that even though you might specify an odd-second delay,
it will still be executed on a full heartbeat (even second).
