CBA_fnc_addPerFrameHandler not working in 3DEN

[Freddo3000]

Mods (complete and add to the following information):

• Arma 3: 1.98
• CBA: 3.15.1.200418 stable

Description: CBA perFrameHandler system isn't active in 3DEN

Steps to reproduce:

• Go into editor
• Open debug console
• Run any of the following
  • CBA_fnc_addperFrameHandler
  • CBA_fnc_execNextFrame
  • CBA_fnc_waitUntilAndExecute
  • CBA_fnc_waitAndExecute (time = 0)
  • etc
• Note that they do not evaluate

Expected behavior: The above functions, and all other functions that rely on CBA perFrameHandlers, to execute in 3DEN.

Where did the issue occur?

• 3DEN Editor (not preview)

Additional context: This is caused by addMissionEventHandler ["EachFrame", {call FUNC(onFrame)}]; being in postInit instead of preInit. Executing it manually in the debug console resolves the issue.

I'd move it to preInit, and have CBA_missionTime set to start in postInit.

No.

No to which part of the question and why?

[commy2]

No to moving PFH et al to preInit. That would break a lot of things.

[Freddo3000]

Might be worth mentioning in the listed functions then, that it does not work during preInit and as such does not work in briefing and 3DEN. Would it otherwise be possible to make an exception for 3DEN at least?

[commy2]

You cannot tell that you are in 3den in preInit, as the is3DEN command is bugged in preInit.

[dedmen]

as the is3DEN command is bugged in preInit.

do you have a FT ticket for that? Its not noted on biki or anywhere

[commy2]

I gave up on documenting bugs on the wiki.

[jonpas]

Is is3DEN still bugged in preInit?

I'll fold this into #1613 although this has been opened for longer. #1613 comes with a linked PR.
