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 {}; // Not valid RE owner _gearArray remoteExecCall ['someGearFunction',remoteExecutedOwner]; Will prevent from code being accidentaly sent for everyone on the server.
