Called to determine if the <page>Global.LocalPlayer</page> should be drawn.⤶

Due to an [optimization](https://garry.tv/2012/10/30/optimising-gmod/), this hook is only called once per frame ([github issue](https://github.com/Facepunch/garrysmod-issues/issues/3092)). This is problematic if you need to have the player drawn only in certain contexts, such as within <page>render.RenderView</page> or based on the render target. As a workaround, you can call &lt;kbd&gt;<page>cam.Start3D</page>()&nbsp;<page>cam.End3D</page>()&lt;/kbd&gt; within this hook to force the engine to call it every time.⤶

<note>If you're using this hook to draw a player for a <page>GM:CalcView</page> hook, then you may want to consider using the drawviewer variable you can use in your <page>CamData</page> table instead.</note>⤶
