I want to set a custom field on shopping cart when I first retrieve it.

https://craftcms.com/docs/commerce/4.x/extend/events.html#modifycartinfo sounds appropriate so I tried doing this:

Event::on( BaseFrontEndController::class, BaseFrontEndController::EVENT_MODIFY_CART_INFO, function(ModifyCartInfoEvent $e) { $order = $e->cart; $order->setFieldValue('customField', SOME_VALUE); $e->cart = $order; } );

the event handler is executed, yet customField is null in the API response.

doing the same thing in an Adjuster works. however that only runs on a cart update obviously.

edit: ok, this explains why it didn't work that way https://github.com/craftcms/commerce/blob/develop/src/events/ModifyCartInfoEvent.php#L28

What's the right way to set the field on carts?
