WHILE is almost identical to IF, but the commands in a WHILE will loop as long as the expression is true, whereas the commands in an IF will be executed only once.

WHILE ( expression )
//command
ENDWHILE
expression The situation that triggers the commands between WHILE and ENDWHILE.
command The commands that have to be triggered by the expression.
ENDWHILE Every WHILE must end with an ENDWHILE.

To activate all commands within a WHILE at once, in stead of one by one, you can use the WHILE_EXEC command. Be carefull when using these, as to much WHILE_EXECs will slow the game down. Often the delay of a normal WHILE is barely noticeable.

WHILE_EXEC ( expression )
//command
ENDWHILE

WHILEs and WHILE_EXECs can be extended with NOT, AND and OR in the same way as with IF.
