Description:: Unscheduled version of remoteExec. The only difference between remoteExec and remoteExecCall is that remoteExecCall will run functions in unscheduled environment.
⚠
The "Call" in remoteExecCall only means that the remote execution will take place in unscheduled environment and does not mean it will happen right away (see Example 3).
Groups:: Multiplayer

Example 1:: ["hello"] remoteExec ["hint"]; // runs unscheduled ["hello"] remoteExecCall ["hint"]; // no difference at all
Example 2:: ["my message"] remoteExec ["BIS_fnc_infoText"]; // correct ["my message"] remoteExecCall ["BIS_fnc_infoText"]; // wrong - BIS_fnc_infoText needs a scheduled environment, see its spawn need
Example 3:: remoteExecCall ["fnc1"]; call fnc2; // fnc1 may or may not be executed after fnc2 call fnc1; call fnc2; // fnc2 will be executed after fnc1
