Release Regulator module
D ESCRIPTION
The Release Regulator module is used to release tank regulators that have been allocated
to an entity using the Seize Regulator module. This makes those regulators available to
other entities waiting to seize the regulator(s).
When the entity enters the Release Regulator module, it gives up control of the specified
regulator(s). Any entities waiting in queues for those regulators will gain control of the
regulators immediately.
