getnamecallmethod

This function must be called from within a __namecall metatable hook, otherwise it will return nil.

getnamecallmethod returns the name of the method that invoked the __namecall metamethod.

When used inside a hookmetamethod hook targeting __namecall, it will attempt to retrieve the method being called (e.g. InvokeServer).

When used outside of said hook, this function will safely return nil.
