Command Based programming is based upon the Iterative framework (which you should probably understand before using either) but is its own project type. And these both make it easier for your robot to "multi-task" without you necessarily having to have multiple scheduled tasks. In either you can throw multiple balls in the air (so to speak) on each iteration, and then check back on progress on subsequent iterations.

I had done something similar, but much simpler, than the CBP back in 2009/2010.
