IActionScheduler.ScheduleOnce Method (TimeSpan, Action)

Schedules an action to be invoked after an delay. The action will be wrapped so that it completes inside the currently active actor if it is called from within an actor.

Remarks

Note! It's considered bad practice to use concurrency inside actors, and very easy to get wrong so usage is discouraged.
