Explain remoteEval and the parameters it's intended to take?

I posted here because nobody looks at developement much.

remoteEval is to perform an action of some sort..

For instance...

remoteEval(2048, say, 0, "Woe is me!");

2048 is for client ID purposes.. If you are client-side scripting, it will always be 2048.

say is the command
0 is the parameter the command requires which I believe is text color (you can't change this from client).

Then after that is the rest of the command.

You could just as easily write say(0,"Woe is me!"); But from a server perspective, you can easily write remoteEval(%clientId, say, 0, "Woe is me!"); This will forward it to the client specified.

It is useful client-side for things you normally aren't able to do..

For instance...
remoteEval(2048, throwItem, 41, 1000); to throw a grenade at maximum force.

Next time, post this in assistance. It will get answered there faster than you think.

- is the parameter the command requires which I believe is text color (you can't change this from client).

actually oz man... 0 is the channel.  the channel references the color in the end.. but it is the channel of the message.  0 is all players, 1 is team players, and you can build in more.
