Description
- Description:
- If the result of condition is true, code is evaluated, and current block with result of code. It only exits the current scope. exitWith exits the execution of a context, which doesnt mean it will exit a script. A context is defined, for example, by while loops, for loops, if blocks, etc. To simplify, if you have code between {}, then you have a context.

Syntax
Examples
- Example 1:
if (_x>5) exitWith {echo "_x is too big"; _x}When _x is greater then 5, outputs message and terminates code in current level with value of _x- Example 2:
for "_j" from 1 to 10 do { player sideChat format ["%1",_j]; if (_j==5) exitWith {player sideChat "5 is enough"}; }; player sideChat "Complete";Only the "for" loop will exit when the exitWith condition has been fulfilled (not the whole script). Execution will continue after the end of the loop (player sideChat "Complete").
