When using overridable EH, such as "InventoryOpened" and similar, where returning true allows to override default action, exitWith cannot be used to return value. So: if (whatever) exitWith {true}; false; Forget about it, will not work. Instead use: if (whatever) then {true} else {false}; 100% satisfaction guaranteed!
