BIS fnc addStackedEventHandler – Talk
Not being able to override default engine behavior was really bumming me out, so I took a look at BIS_fnc_executeStackedEventHandler. By adding 2 variables, I was able to make the function perform as intended (as I see it). Please push this fix to the next hotfix, BIS!

//Parameters

_namespaceId = "BIS_stackedEventHandlers_";
//Mission namespace event

_namespaceEvent = _namespaceId + _event;

_code = [_x, 2, "", [{}, ""]] call BIS_fnc_param;
_arguments = [_x, 3, []] call BIS_fnc_param;
if (typeName _code != typeName "") then {
//Execute code
_trash = _arguments call _code; //call can return, why waste?
} else {
//Execute function
_trash = _arguments call (call compile _code); //not really sure what's happening here. 2 calls?
};
if (typeName _trash == "BOOL") then
{
if (_trash) then
{
_return = true;
};
};
} forEach _data;
//Return
_return;
