NOTE: Always be sure to check if the remoteExecutedOwner is not equal to 0 when sending a remoteExec/remoteExecCall packet back, as this will result in sending packet to ANYONE (0): if (remoteExecutedOwner isEqualTo 0) exitWith {}; // invalid RE owner _gearArray remoteExecCall ['someGearFunction', remoteExecutedOwner]; Will prevent from code being accidentally sent to everyone on the server.
