Realtime mode involves sending a "continue" message to the engine 2 times a second. A model can use the "_Run Continue" broadcast to capture this event and perform a "background" task. This task/thread will be executed even if the user is editing a cell/attribute. It must not perform any time consuming activity and must not generate a dialog. It should be heavily validated to ensure the realtime task will not stop the model with a message under any circumstance.
