Examples
- Example 1:
"hello" remoteExecCall ["hint"]; // runs hint "hello" on each connected client
- Example 2:
"hello" remoteExecCall ["hint", 0]; // runs hint "hello" on each connected client
- Example 3:
"hello" remoteExecCall ["hint", 3]; // runs hint "hello" on first connected client
- Example 4:
"hello" remoteExecCall ["hint", -2]; // runs hint "hello" everywhere but server
- Example 5:
myJipID = "hello" remoteExecCall ["hint", -2, true]; // runs hint "hello" everywhere but server, JIPs the message and return e.g. "3_1" as a unique JIP id
- Example 6:
remoteExecCall ["someFuncWithNoArgs"]; // runs "someFuncWithNoArgs" on each connected client
- Example 7:
remoteExecCall ["", "IamUnique"]; // removes the message identified by "IamUnique" ID from the JIP queue. // Therefore, for newly connected clients hint "hello" won't be displayed anymore
- Example 8:
{player setAmmo [primaryWeapon player, 1];} remoteExecCall ["bis_fnc_call", 0]; // all clients will have their ammo set to 1 for their current weapon
- Example 9:
myJipID = "hello" remoteExecCall ["", 0]; if (isNil "myJipID") then { hint "empty function name is not allowed"; };
