// This is a comment. The game ignores it. It's just for us.

// 1. DEFINE THE GAME STATE (Variables)
// Think of these like your inventory slots.
// 'IsGameActive' is a boolean (True/False) that tracks if the match is running.
var IsGameActive := true

// 2. DEFINE THE ENTITIES (The Scene Graph)
// We need to link our Verse script to the devices in the world.
// 'MyBallSpawner' is the name of the Ball Spawner device in the Event Browser.
// We use 'ref' to say "I am pointing to this specific device."
ref MyBallSpawner := "BallSpawner_1"

// 'RedZone' is the Capture Area for Team Red.
ref RedZone := "CaptureArea_Red"

// 3. THE MAIN LOGIC (The Game Loop)
// This function runs every frame (60 times a second).
// It checks if the game is active. If not, it does nothing.
OnBegin<override>()<suspends> async fun void() {
    // While the game is still active...
    while (IsGameActive) {
        // Wait for the Ball Spawner to spawn a ball.
        // 'OnSpawned' is an event that fires when the spawner creates a ball.
        await MyBallSpawner.OnSpawned
        
        // Once the ball is spawned, we need to watch it.
        // But Verse is smart: we don't need to write a loop for every ball.
        // We can just listen for the ball hitting the capture area.
