Used to return execution to the previous scope along with a value.

:Exits the function and continues script execution in the previous scope.

:Causes the script to crash. Events cannot return a value. Use the next form of this keyword instead.

Used to prematurely return execution to the previous scope before reaching the end of the function/event.
You do not need to use this at the end of an event or function, as it is assumed by the compiler.
===Functions===
:Exits the function and continues script execution in the previous scope.
===Events===
:Exits the event and removes it from the event queue. If there is another event in the queue, that event is triggered.

}}{{#vardefine:caveats|*There is a bug in the compiler and it will let you return a value with events, which when encountered at runtime will cause the script to crash.
**Do not try to return a value in the event scope if you do not wish your script to crash.
