If the dispatching pass adds new messages to the queu, it will do another pass. There is, however, a hard limit to how many times the engine tries to empty the queue, which effectively puts a limit to how long message chains you can expect to be fully dispatched within a frame. You can easily test how many dispatch passes the engine performs between each `update()` with the following script:
