Set our ready time based on a delay from the current time. We'll become ready after the given number of turns elapses. For convenience, we return 'self', so a delayed agenda item can be initialized and added to an actor's agenda in one simple operation, like so:

actor.addToAgenda(item.setDelay(1));
