Not to be confused with Events.

The event type is used for events such as events.TICK. To create an event function, use one of the following.

 local tick = 0
function events.WORLD_TICK()
  tick = tick + 1
end
-- OR
local tick = 0
events.WORLD_TICK:register(function()
  tick = tick + 1
end, "TICK_COUNTER")
