setnamecallmethod

Rewrites the method name dispatched by the active __namecall metamethod.

setnamecallmethod(method: string): ()

Takes a string and replaces the method name on the active namecall, so dispatch routes to the new method instead of the one the caller originally asked for. Only meaningful inside a __namecall metamethod.

Most commonly used inside a hookmetamethod(game, "__namecall", ...) hook to swap the called method for any other one you want.

Parameters

Parameter	Type	Description
method	string	Method name to dispatch in place of the original.

Returns

void

Example

Find an RPG game with loot mechanics, where a client ModuleScript loops through items on the ground and calls :PickUp() on each one. Filter the call so only rare items go through; common ones get redirected to a method that destroys them.

Example 1

<<<<<<< HEAD
setnamecallmethod("__index")
=======
-- setnamecallmethod(method: string): ()
>>>>>>> 50e30f53759b0538759af25c9b271514aa2c9290

Useful for redirecting call flows in custom __namecall hooks.
