- Description:

- value: Anything - a value to return
- name: String - name of the scope (previously set with scopeName)
- Return Value:
- Anything
Examples
- Example 1:
scopeName "main"; while {true} do { scopeName "loop1"; while {true} do { scopeName "loop2"; if (condition1) then {breakTo "main"}; // Breaks all scopes and return to "main" if (condition2) then {breakOut "loop2"}; // Breaks scope named "loop2" sleep 1; }; sleep 1; };- Example 2:
call { scopeName "main"; call { 123 breakOut "main" }; 345 }; // call returns 123

When "name" is nil, the command is ignored.
When "name" is an undefined scope name or "", the script quits current scope.if (true) then { hint "1"; breakOut nil; hint "2"; }; //result "2" if (true) then { hint "1"; breakOut ""; hint "2"; }; //result "1" if (true) then { hint "1"; breakOut "dskfhdsklfh"; hint "2"; }; //result "1"
