--- End quote ---

First the client sends the request like this:
commandtoserver('gimmeData');

Then the server receives it, and sends the data back by doing:
function servercmdgimmeData(%client)
{
%data = getdata();
commandtoclient(%client, 'givinData', %data);
}

Finally, the client receives the data like so:
function clientcmdgivinData(%data)
{
dataObtained(%data);
}

Mapster:
Could you make it so they automatically request it when they connect to the server?

Like have the server forces them to request it or something weird.

How would you define automatic?

You can have the server just send the data sure, which would basically skip to the commandtoclient(%client, 'givinData', %data);

However, if the client does not have the function clientcmdgivinData, then nothing will happen.

Mapster:
Automatic as in, when the connect to the server it happens on its own.

Wouldn't that be ServerConnection::onClientJoin?
or what?
