Description

Description:

Adds mission event handler. Every event will create an array named _this, which contains specific information about the particular event. Available mission event handlers:
"Loaded"
"Ended" - Triggered when the mission is successfully ended. The variable _this, stores the type of the ending ("END1","END2", "LOSER", etc.).
"Draw3D" - It seems "Draw3D" mission EH is connected to your primary display. It will stop firing as soon as you Alt+Tab from the game and resume when you come back (unless Arma 3 client is launched with -window -nopause params). "Draw3D" does not fire at all on a dedicated server.
"HandleDisconnect" - Triggered when player disconnects from the game. Similar to onPlayerDisconnected event but can be stacked and contains the unit occupied by player before disconnect. Must be added on the server and triggers only on the server. For more info: HandleDisconnect
