## Description

Triggers a custom event with a matching *Identifier* in ANY script brain and resumes execution immediately after triggering. Only triggers **On Custom Event, Global Async** nodes. Unless you have a specific need for asynchronous execution, it is best to use **Trigger Custom Event, Global**.

## Node Type

Nodes fall into two basic categories: Data and Execution. This Execution node triggers other node strings to start firing.
