Eden Editor Event Handlers – Arma 3

Eden Editor event handlers. When added, they will remain until Eden Editor is closed. Playing preview will not erase them.

Scripting

Commands:

• add3DENEventHandler
• remove3DENEventHandler

Example:

add3DENEventHandler ["onUndo",{hint "Undo";}]

Config

Alternatively, you can define event handlers directly in the config. Use your custom section (mySection in the example) to prevent overriding handlers from other sources. Handlers defined here will be added automatically when Eden Editor is opened.

class Cfg3DEN
{
	class EventHandlers
	{
		class mySection
		{
			onUndo = "hint 'Undo';";
			// <handlerName> = <handlerExpression>
		};
	};
};

List

Template:Horizontoc Most handlers don't receive any arguments. That is intended, because in most cases, required data can be obtained either using get3DENActionState, or by specialized 'get' commands.
