Resource:CallingFunctions

This template is no longer in use as it results in poor readability.

This resource was made off of the functions: CallClientFunction and CallServerFunction

callSF

 void exports.callingFunctions:callSF( string funcname, [ var arg1, ... ] ) 

Required

• funcname: The name of the function that should be called serverside. May also be a function in a table, e.g. "math.round".

Optional

Example

This example removes the player from his team.

-- get the local player element
local _local = getLocalPlayer()

    callServerFunction("setPlayerTeam", _local)
end
-- add the command handler
addCommandHandler("leaveTeam", cmdLeaveTeam, false)
