This event is triggered when a resource is started. Please note that this is not triggered the same time as the serverside event onResourceStart is. The event is triggered when any clientside resources are started. This means it is triggered when a clientside script is initiated after a download, which includes downloading after join. So:

  • If a resource is running before a player joins, the onClientResourceStart event will be triggered after they join and have downloaded that resource.
  • If a resource is started after a player has joined, the player will be made to download the required files, and then the onClientResourceStart event will be triggered.

Parameters

resource startedResource
  • startedResource: the resource that was started.

Source

The source of this event is the started resource's root element.

Example

This example outputs name of resource that was started.

addEventHandler( "onClientResourceStart", getRootElement( ),
    function ( startedRes )
        outputChatBox( "Resource started: " .. getResourceName( startedRes ) );
    end
);
