New Revision: 8505

Modified:
   code/trunk/src/libraries/core/Core.cc
Log:
Do not limit the main thread to the first Core/CPU on Windows. It might slow down the game by a percent or two because Ogre forces the program to reside in the first core when it queries the time, hence potentially rescheduling the application.
On the other hand, limiting the application's main thread to one core has drawbacks when starting Orxonox multiple times without taking care of it by specifying --limitToCPU #.
