Description

Description:

Stacks an event handler. All event handlers accept user arguments, which are passed to the EH code in _this variable. If the EH has own params returned in _this variable as well, user arguments are appended to the end of _this array. Note that if you try to add empty EH, i.e. with empty code, it will simply be ignored.

Supported event handlers

• "onEachFrame" - no EH params
• "onPlayerConnected" - EH params are passed as array in _this ([<id>,<uid>,<name>,<jip>,<owner>]) and in special variables _id, _uid, _name, _jip, _owner
• "onPlayerDisconnected" - EH params are passed as array in _this ([<id>,<uid>,<name>,<jip>,<owner>]) and in special variables _id, _uid, _name, _jip, _owner
• "onMapSingleClick" - EH params are passed as array in _this ([<units>,<pos>,<alt>,<shift>]) and in special variables _units, _pos, _alt, _shift
• "onPreloadStarted" - no EH params
• "onPreloadFinished" - no EH params

Since Arma 3 v1.57 a stackable MissionEventHandler is available and should be used instead: MapSingleClick

Return Value:

String - custom id on success or "" on failure

Example 1:

["someId", "onEachFrame", {hintSilent str time}] call BIS_fnc_addStackedEventHandler;

(ArmA3 1.22) Stack all codes into one PFH will be less demanding than separated calling within multiple PFH. E.g. { [(format [“%1”,_forEachIndex]),”onEachFrame”,_code,[_x]] call BIS_fnc_addStackedEventHandler; } forEach [var0…var100]; //pretty demanding [_id, ”onEachFrame”,{ {_x call _code} forEach [var0…var100]; }] call BIS_fnc_addStackedEventHandler; //faster

For returning array with all ids: missionNamespace getVariable [format["BIS_stackedEventHandlers_%1",_event],[]]; Where is _event - name of event ('OnEachFrame', etc.)
