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
Arma 3
Since Arma 3 v1.57 a stackable MissionEventHandler is available and should be used instead: MapSingleClick
Execution:
call
Multiplayer:
This command has the same locality as addMissionEventHandler.
Groups:
Event Handlers

Syntax

Syntax:
[id, event, code, arguments] call BIS_fnc_addStackedEventHandler;
Parameters:
id: String - custom id, a unique identifier. Adding same type of EH with the same id will overwrite existing
event: String - event handler name, see description for supported EHs
code: Code or String. The String is treated as function name
arguments: Array of Anything - arguments to make available in code in _this array
Return Value:
String - custom id on success or "" on failure

Examples

Example 1:
["someId", "onEachFrame", {hintSilent str time}] call BIS_fnc_addStackedEventHandler;
Example 2:
["someId", "onEachFrame", {hintSilent str position (_this select 0)}, [player]] call BIS_fnc_addStackedEventHandler;

Arma 3 logo black.png1.22 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.)
