# #108: the prologue - the convoy, the ambush, the asteroid belt, and the
# breach that leaves the player with one ship and no way home.
#
# It directs the REAL scene rather than being a scene of its own. It wants
# the real fleet, the real enemies and the real asteroid field, and it makes
# "then the game starts" cost nothing: the director stops steering, clears
# GameState.intro_active, and what is left running is the ordinary game with
# exactly the opening position a new game already has.
#
# The script is a list of BEATS. Each has a deadline as well as its own "am
# I done" test, so a beat whose condition is never met - the player refusing
# to fly at the ambush, say - cannot wedge the prologue; it simply runs out
# and the next one starts. skip() ends the whole thing at any point and
# lands in the same state as playing it through, so there is one way for the
# game to start rather than two that have to be kept in step.
#
# #128: those deadlines are wall clock only while the game is RUNNING. A
# dialog stops the tree, which stops this node too, so a beat's clock never
# ticks past an unread line - the deadline is the way out of a beat the
# player will not finish, not a way past a line they have not acknowledged.
