Hi Habi.
This plugin works well, I've been using it, I'm having some problems right now.

Code Select Expand

shop <- null;

class Shop {
a = null;
b = null;
constructor(a,b){
}
}

The client has a slot A and a Shop class
I want to implement a = Shop(a,b); But it failed.

My code:
local userData = ::SetRemoteValue( ::GetRemoteValue("shop"), ::CallRemoteFunc( ::GetRemoteValue("Shop"), name, cargo ) );
 ::RemoteExec(userData, player);

Hi PSL,
I am glad to know that plugin is working fine.

Your code change to this and try:

Code Select Expand

local userData = ::SetRemoteValue( "shop", ::CallRemoteFunc( ::GetRemoteValue("Shop"), name, cargo ) );
 ::RemoteExec(userData, player);


[PSL]

Thank you. The code you provided worked

Remote Exec v1.1.6 Released

We are pleased to announce the release of Remote Exec v1.1.6 for VC:MP servers. This version includes improvements and fixes along with the necessary client-side script files for proper functionality.

Changelog:

v1.1.6 (includes v1.1.5 changes, which was not released) 

• Fixed client errors when an empty table is passed. 
• If the player instance parameter is null in RemoteExec: 
  
  Code (Squirrel) Select Expand
  RemoteExec(SetRemoteValue("a", 1000), null)  It will execute on all connected clients in one go. 
• Clients can now send valid Squirrel data types (string, integer, float, blob, etc.) to the server with an identifier. 
  
  Code (Squirrel) Select Expand
  PassDataToServer(identifier, data) to send data.  The server-side callback
  
  Code (Squirrel) Select Expand
  onClientData(player, identifier, data) (identifier can be numbered 1,2,3,...) will be executed.
• New function RemoteOpen to 'dofile' a nut file in client-side. This has limitations..
  
  Code (Squirrel) Select Expand
  RemoteOpen("path/to/nut", player) transfers a NUT script file as a string and compiles it on the client.  However, this does not affect class functions like GUI::KeyPressed, which still only call the old callback. 
• Clients can now execute server functions using new client-side function 'Exec'. eg.
  
  Code (Squirrel) Select Expand
  Exec(GetRemoteValue("print")("Have a nice day"))will print text on server console

I can't wait to use it. Well done, Habi bro!

[habi2]

thank you PSL

Hello, Hibi.
An error occurred with GetRemoteValue("print")("abc") on the client, typeof( GetRemoteValue("print")("abc") ) This returns type null.
When I use Exec(GetRemoteValue("print")("Have a nice day")) the client throws an error PeerExec: superblob expected but got null

Code Select Expand

    local userData = CallRemoteFunc( GetRemoteValue("print"),"123");
    Exec( userData );  //This is effective

Hi PSL,
There was a problem with _call metamethod of superblob, that it will fail if the 'this' parameter is not table(eg.roottable). I have fixed the problem, now GetRemoteValue("")() can be used anywhere( table, class or instance) :

Code Select Expand

Player::PlayerDeath, Player::PlayerShoot, all events of Player ( this = Player, a class )
Like Player, it is available across places where 'this' is class like GUI, KeyBind, Script or Server.

This is updated in the following file:

I hope this will solve the problem

[PSL]

After my testing, this problem has been solved

[habi2]

thank you for testing.

Hi Habi，How to send the last data to the server using client-side scripts when a player quits, such as after entering /q?

I tried to perform a remote call to return data during the player exit event, but there was no response

[habi2]

Hi PSL,
Which data are you referring to.

You can perhaps use ScriptUnload event client side to detect player quitting:

Code Select Expand

Script::ScriptUnload()
Return type: void.
Called before scripts are unloaded, on disconnect.


[PSL]

The player's client has a table that stores the state of the GUI. I hope that when the player quits, this table can be sent to the server and stored on the server, so that when the player logs in again, the table can be transmitted to restore the previous GUI state.

[PSL]

PassDataToServer

I can use the this function to send this table, but using this function in script uninstallation events is invalid。

What I can think of now is to use a client timer to implement it
