====== EventHandlers ======

**EventHandler**'s or EH's.

====== Dammaged ======

Global.

(If simultaneous damage occured (e.g. via grenade) EH might be triggered several times.)

**Note:** Can be triggered on vehicles only when the engine is on (and therefore it needs a driver/pilot).

  * unit: Object - Object the event handler is assigned to

  * damage: Number - Resulting level of damage

====== Engine ======

Triggered when the engine of the unit is turned on/off.

Global.

There is a bug in MP: On clients where the vehicle is not local, //engineState// is always false, so you should use the following instead.

<code>
_vehicle addEventHandler ["engine", {[_this select 0, isEngineOn (_this select 0)] exec "myScript.sqs"}"]
</code>

  * unit: Object - Object the event handler is assigned to
