tasks
The tasks namespace contains functions used to run concurrent functions (coroutines). These functions operate similar to Lua’s built in coroutines but offer a bit more flexibility on how they work. daochook also extends the built-in coroutine table to include additional functions.
Functions exposed by this namespace are accessed via the prefix: hook.tasks.
Functions
once
Executes a task once.
| Parameter Name | Type | Description |
|---|
func | function | The function to execute. |

1hook.tasks.once(delay, func);
| Parameter Name | Type | Description |
|---|
delay | number | The delay to wait before executing the task. |
func | function | The function to execute. |
oncef
Executes a task once, after the given delay (in frames).
1hook.tasks.once(delay, func);
| Parameter Name | Type | Description |
