hook
.ProtectedCall
/ProtectedRun
will execute hooks without interruptions. If a hook returns a value or encounters an error, it will not halt the execution of the remaining hooks.These functions are particularly useful for hooks that do not expect a return value, such as Initialize hooks.
Many poorly designed addons in the workshop return values within critical hooks, making it difficult to track down what is preventing a hook from working correctly or causing issues.
Here is a simple list of hooks that could benefit from it:
GM:PreGamemodeLoaded
GM:OnGamemodeLoaded
GM:PostGamemodeLoaded
GM:Initialize
GM:OnEntityCreated
GM:EntityRemoved
GM:InitPostEntity
