MTA | Write in separate files or in one?

[Roderen]

Should I write server and client parts in separate files or all in one?
Or how is it convenient for me?

You should only combine them when for example they contain utility functions, like:

When setting the file to shared, it will make a file copy for the server and a copy for every player/client.

<script src="test.lua" type="shared" />

 

 

• Serverside code runs on the server. > MTA Server.exe
• Clientside code runs on every player individuality. > MTA San Andreas.exe (There are as much clientsides as there are players > variables are not shared)

Running code on the wrong application, doesn't sounds like a good idea to me.

• Serverside shouldn't draw UI.
• Clientside shouldn't kick/ban players. > With other words: A player client(MTA San Andreas.exe) shouldn't be able to ban another player, because the server(MTA Server.exe) is the only application that is able to ban a player.
