# /return

## Syntax

**/return \[value|${varname}]**

```
Sub Evade
  /if (!${Me.AbilityReady[Hide]}) {
     /echo Hide has not refreshed, so we are leaving early.
     /return
  }
  /echo Hide is ready, so we will continue processing
  /attack off
  /doability Hide
  /delay 5
  /attack on
/return
```
