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

- Example 1:
["someId", "onEachFrame", {hintSilent str time}] call BIS_fnc_addStackedEventHandler;

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.)
