# onInit

On onInit gets triggered once, when CET loads in all the mods. This event ensures that CET has fully loaded, and you have access to the Scripting API. There can be only one onInit event per mod.

Use it to register any [Observers](/cyber-engine-tweaks/cet-functions/observers.md), as well as do any one-off actions needed for your mod.

{% hint style="success" %}
This event is a safe starting point for your code interaction with the game, as it guarantees the access to most of the Scripting API.
{% endhint %}

{% hint style="info" %}
This event is also triggered when using "Reload all mods" button in the [CET Overlay](/cyber-engine-tweaks/console/usage.md), as it fires when CET load all mods.
{% endhint %}

## Usage Example

{% code title="init.lua" %}

```lua
registerForEvent('onInit', function()

    print('Game is loaded')
    
end)
```

{% endcode %}

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the current page URL with the `ask` query parameter, and the optional `goal` query parameter:

```
GET https://wiki.redmodding.org/cyber-engine-tweaks/cet-functions/events/oninit.md?ask=<question>&goal=<endgoal>
```

`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is optional and describes the broader end goal you are ultimately trying to accomplish on behalf of the user. GitBook uses it to tailor the answer towards what is most useful for that goal.

The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.

Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
