client and server pointers

by Ian Omroth Hardingham · in Torque Game Engine · 05/13/2002 (3:36 am) · 1 replies

Hmm.

On the server:
new SimSet (Moo) {};

commandToClient( %client, 'foo' , Moo );

On the client:

function ClientCommandFoo( %looloo )
{
    %looloo.delete();
}

So... does this delete Moo on the server? When objects are sent down the connection are they just pointers to objects on the server or are they actual objects?

Thanks.
Ian

And, most importantly, what kind of performance hit am I going to get if the client needs to get SimSet data from the server?

I mean, if a client is calling functions on a pointer to an object on the server.

Thanks.
