How to get the value from a server variable ?

#1 In the case of that particular, and that single variable, you'll want to pass the value to the client via a net event...most commonly something like a

commandToClient(%client, 'SetServerStateVariables', "TeamPlay", $pref::Server::TeamPlay);

on the server, and in the client:

clientCmdSetServerStateVariables(%variableToSet, %value)
{
...parse out which variable to set
...set the value client side
}

Another option would be to have a c++ class that contains the server state of the variables in source code, and then ghost that object to the client. The client would then automatically be updated with the state changes as they occur, or during their initial update.

#2 It is complicated like this ??? I can't believe, only to read a value the server initiated !!
No other way, so I must try to get it work......

#3 It's not that it's complicated, it's that by definition you do not normally want clients to have easy access to server variables. That would open you up to an amazing assortment of hacks and cheats that would destroy any game. Due to that, you need to broadcast intentionally variables that you want the client to know about, in a very controlled manner.

#4 Just a note.... in Stephen's code there is (at least) one small error.
serverCmdSetServer... should be clientCmdSetServer....
Now it's fixed, so I look like a moron. There was an error, but it's fixed now, so you can completely ignore my post :)
You can see examples of other clientCmd functions inside client.cs (somewhere in the client subfolder) as well as some other places in the scripts.

#5 Thanks for the correction--I always get those confused...some type of mental block or something, and I use the commands all the time :(

My original post fixed.

#6 Stephen, I don't know what Alan means, but it works like you say, with no corrections....

#7 Because I corrected the code myself after Alan brought it up! What is above is the way it should be (now, it wasn't).
