params, how do they actually work?

[RedHouse]

Hey does anyone know how the params work in multiplayer because i cant find any tuts on them and have little idea on how they work.

I don't know if this will help you, but, read it anyway.

well, parameters work the same in both mp and sp, afaik.

there are many things that do work differently, certain commands etc., but parameters are the same

[RedHouse]

so param1 and param2 becomes a global variable that can be used anywhere?

[Triggerhappy]

then you should have asked about global variables...parameters arewhat you give to scripts etc

I'm not positive but i think global variables need to be changed on the server in order to work right
once again i'm not sure

[qqqqqq]

In MP use publicvariable to tell all clients when a variable changes.

RedHouse what's the underlying question/problem?

[RedHouse]

hey i know wht global variables are and i know how to use publicVariable, but lets say i set everything up in the description.ext with param1 and param2

does that mean to use those values that are set for these params i can use in  any script things like

? param1 == 1: do this
? param1 == 2: do that
