Auto Assembler createThreadAndWait(Address, TimeoutOPTIONAL(7.1+) )

Will spawn a thread in the process at the specified address and wait till it returns and then continues assembling the code after the createThreadAndWait command

Timeout lets you specify the time to wait in milliseconds before giving an error, which is handy if the AA script runs in the main thread

If the timeout is missing, 0 smaller, it will wait forever

Note: In the case of CE 7.0 or earlier there was no timeout parameter, and the timeout is always set to 5000 (5 seconds)
When you load a table made with CE 7.0 or earlier the behavior of AA scripts without a timeout parameter reverts back to 5000 instead of 0
