It is true that there is one and only one tiling interval for a given schedule.
However, one option is to have the agent-specific action have the
side-effect of scheduling the next action in one hundred steps from
the current time.  Meanwhile, other agents can be placing whatever is
appropriate for them on that shared schedule, as well.
