TryToEnableNoWait - ReferenceAlias

Member of: ReferenceAlias Script

This is a convenient way to enable a reference (without waiting on it to finish enabling) in an alias without calling GetReference() on it. It's mostly useful in cases where you have lots of aliases that may or may not be filled and you want to call EnableNoWait() on them without having to test for a reference being present first.

Syntax

bool Function TryToEnableNoWait()
	ObjectReference Ref = GetReference()
	if Ref
		Ref.EnableNoWait()
		Return True
	EndIf
	Return False
EndFunction

Parameters

None

Return Value

True if the object was requested to enable, false if no object was there to be enabled.

Examples

; Attempt to enable the cool thing without waiting on it to finish
CoolAlias.TryToEnableNoWait()
