Core.wait() doesn't work right in scripts in 11.4

[qam1]

core.wait(); is not working right in the new version 11.4

If you put a value under 1 second, it will round up to 1

For instance, if your line is core.wait(0.25);

the script will wait a full 1 second instead of a quarter of a second. No matter what decimal you put in, it will wait 1 second

It looks like somehow in version 11.4 core.wait() can only do integers of being able to do decimals (double).

Here's an simple example to show

q = 1
while (q == 1)
{
core.setDate("+1 hours");
core.wait(0.1);
}

Please make this a critical bug, most of my (and I am sure other people's) scripts I made for Stellarium (and my private ones) now don't work effectively.

I am using windows 7 and the 64 bit version of Stellarium 0.11.4

On a hunch from a discussion in the forums I downloaded, installed and ran the 32 Bit version of 0.11.4 and wa-la the bug is not there.

So this bug is in the 64 bit Windows version only (I don't know about mac or Linux).

This issue like Qt-related issue for Windows x64, but possible this is Stellarium issue (need workaround for x64 libraries?).

Stellarium 0.13.0 with Mac OSX 10.9.2 work OK...I have tested core.wait(0.1) as well as core.wait(10)

But for Windows 7x 64 with stellarium 0.12.4 x64.....this problem still exist, stellarium ignore core.wait(0.1) and even core.wait(10)

Anybody can check it on modern versions of Stellarium?

I can't reproduce this bug anymore. Please check any 0.13.xx.0 version.
