Calling a sub that's server side from the client? possible?

[kyle9217]

im not sure how to do this and wondering how.

Example

' Sub on server '

Sub Serversub(index)

Call PlayerMsg(index, "hello", green)

End sub

' Client '

Case "/hello"

Call Serversub(MyIndex)

No, this can not be done. You'd have to send a packet to the server in order to manipulate it.

It is possible but not on your example way

Case "/Hello"

Send an packet

Server

Getting packet and call with that an sub

Kyle there are literally hundreds of example in eclipse itself how to do this.

If you take note eclipse currenty uses a number of 'packets' to send data to and from the client and server, these packets are linked to call out functions to the process the data the packets are sending. It sounds slightly complicated but its really quite simple.

Fire up your client and search around for something like -

```
HandleDataSub(SInGame) = GetAddress(AddressOf HandleInGame)
```

Notice the two key words there, the **SInGame** and **HandleInGame**

That means that when the client(for this example) receives a packet from the server addressing itself as '**SInGame**' it should carry out the function **HandleInGame.**

If you copy, paste and modify all instances of these two functions for both the server and the client (they will be slightly different in search) then you can call functions just like that!

- zero.
