You can use isServer inside the condition of a trigger to have the trigger activate only for the server. All other conditions for the trigger will be checked across all machines, but it will only activate the trigger created on the server.


example:

<dd class="notedate">Posted on 2011-04-08</dd>
<dt class="note">[[User:Igneous01|Igneous01]]</dt>

this && isServer
if (!isServer) then {
// run on all player clients incl. headless clients but not player host
};


The verb is misleading, it's correct interpretation is
if (!hasInterface) then {
// run on headless clients and dedicated server
};


NotMpClient
if (!hasInterface && !isDedicated) then {
// run on headless clients only
};
</sqf>

Before Arma 3 and server-only triggers: You can use isServer inside the condition of a trigger to have the trigger activate only for the server. All other conditions for the trigger will be checked across all machines, but it will only activate the trigger created on the server. For example:
this && isServer
