Parameters:

action: String - can be one of:

• "initialize" - Initializes game loop (not required as internal AUTO_INITIALIZE variable is set to true)
• "terminate" - Terminates game loop (required as internal AUTO_TERMINATE variable is not set to true)
• "itemAdd" - Adds an item to loop
• "itemRemove" - Remove item from loop with id "uniqueId"
• "onEachFrame" - internally used by "initialize"
• "itemExecute" - internally used by "onEachFrame"

parameters: Array - used with "itemAdd" and "itemRemove" action ("itemRemove" only takes id):

• id: String - loop unique id
• code: Code or String - code to be executed
• timer: Number - (Optional, default 0) delay between executions
• timerType: String - (Optional, default "seconds") can be "seconds" or "frames"
• conditionStart: Code - (Optional, default { true }) will wait until the condition is met to start the code
• conditionEnd: Code - (Optional, default { false }) stops the loop as soon as the ending condition is met (after the end of code)
• executeOnce: Boolean - (Optional, default false)

Examples

Example 1:

// hints time every five seconds ["itemAdd", ["uniqueId", { hint str time; }, 5]] call BIS_fnc_loop;

Example 2:

// removes stacked loop with id of uniqueId ["itemRemove", ["uniqueId"]] call BIS_fnc_loop;

Example 3:

// hints time every frame after BIS_variable is assigned ["itemAdd", ["uniqueId", { hint str time; }, nil, nil, { !isNil { BIS_variable } }]] call BIS_fnc_loop;

Example 4:

// hints time every five seconds after BIS_variable is assigned ["itemAdd", ["uniqueId", { hint str time; }, 5, "seconds", { !isNil { BIS_variable } }]] call BIS_fnc_loop;

Example 5:

// hints time every frame ["itemAdd", ["uniqueId", { hint str time; }]] call BIS_fnc_loop;

Example 6:

// remove item from loop with id "uniqueId" ["itemRemove", ["uniqueId"]] call BIS_fnc_loop;
