How to use EachFrame addEventHandler

[gc8 977]

Hi Does anyone know how to use the eachframe handler?

 

I tried this code:

 

player addEventHandler ["EachFrame", 
{
player sidechat format["Test %1",time];

}];
 

but it prints nothing...

Try using it as a mission event handler. https://community.bistudio.com/wiki/Arma_3:_Event_Handlers/addMissionEventHandler

#define NAMETAGSHID Sfx_Handler_Nametags

 Fn_Sfx_EnableNametags = {
	if (productVersion select 2 >= 158) then {
		if (not isNil {NAMETAGSHID}) then {
			removeMissionEventHandler ["EachFrame", NAMETAGSHID]};
		if (_this) then {
			NAMETAGSHID = addMissionEventHandler ["EachFrame", {call Fn_Sfx_DrawNametags}]}
	} else {
		if (_this) then {
			["NAMETAGSHID", "onEachFrame", {call Fn_Sfx_DrawNametags}] call BIS_fnc_addStackedEventHandler
		} else {		
			["NAMETAGSHID", "onEachFrame"] call BIS_fnc_removeStackedEventHandler}
	}
};

Fn_Sfx_DrawNametags = {
	private _bvd = 33.3 * (1 - (fog ^ 1.5) * 0.75) * (1 - (rain ^ 1.5) * 0.25);
	private _mag = ([0.5,0.5] distance2D worldToScreen positionCameraToWorld [0,3,4]) * (getResolution select 5) * 1.5;
	{
		if (alive _x and _x isEqualTo vehicle _x) then {
			if (not isPlayer _x and side _x isEqualTo side player) then {
				private _dst = 1 max ((_x distance player) / _mag);
				if (_dst < _bvd) then {
					if ([objNull, "VIEW"] checkVisibility [eyePos player, eyePos _x] > 0) then {
						private _tag = _x getVariable "Nametag";
						if (isNil "_tag") then {
							_tag = ["",[1,1,1,0.5],[],0.5,0.5,0,name _x,2,0.05,"RobotoCondensed"];
							_x setVariable ["Nametag", _tag];
						};
						_tag set [0, format ["\A3\Ui_f\data\GUI\Cfg\Ranks\%1_gs.paa", toLower rank _x]];
						_tag set [6, name _x];
						_tag set [2, _x modelToWorldVisual ((_x selectionPosition "pilot") vectorAdd [0,0,0.30 + 0.018 * _dst])];
						_tag set [3, 1 / _dst ^ 0.3];
						_tag set [4, 1 / _dst ^ 0.3];
						_tag set [8, 0.05 / _dst ^ 0.25];
						drawIcon3D _tag;
					}
				}
			}
		}
	} forEach allUnits;
};
