How to make a definition name for the custom event?

How to make a definition name for the custom event?
I generated uint event name:

Code: Select all

local event_name = script.generate_event_name()

And to "hear" it, I use:

Code: Select all

script.on_event(new_event, check_test_event)

But how can i create a definitive name for other mods?
Classic events are defined as:

Code: Select all

script.on_event(defines.events.EVENTNAME, ACTION)

How do I add a name to my event?

There is no way to assign a global name to a custom event ID. When cross-mod compatibility is needed, you will need to add a remote interface so that mod can ask your mod what event ID to register.
