Well, no, I guess I should say that 'evidently, the GUI does not get
updated', since that's what I see. And neither does my probe on the current
sim time. I do nothing fancy in my scheduling, so I don't see why some
scheduled events should get executed and others not.

More puzzling, what about that Start button that seems to act as a
Step/Next button after a software stop ?
