-Ham Sandwich is a very powerful module by [[User:Sawce|sawce]] which can hook and call virtual CBaseEntity functions on a variety of mods.  For more information, see the [http://svn.alliedmods.net/viewvc.cgi/trunk/plugins/include/hamsandwich.inc?root=amxmodx&view=log hamsandwich.inc] file.

-This accidental functionality was not documented API.  However, some plugins have been found to mistakenly abuse this property.  An example is calling <tt>menu_create</tt> and having <tt>show_menu</tt> calls run through your <tt>menu_create</tt> callback instead of using <tt>menu_display</tt> properly.
