Hello guys !! I need info on how to run another finction in otjer lua file but within same resource.

Like thjis: i have a file called client1.lua and client2.lua both are clientside. Now the client1.lua has function named openInputWindow and i need to execute tjhat finction from client2.lua. How to do this?

P.S Sorry my typos, i writed this from ann iphone

Well, just execute it, if you haven't defined the function as local, then should work.

If you want to execute a function from a resource to another then export it with:

-- meta.xml:

function="functionName" type="functionType" /> 

and then from the other resource you can do:

exports["resourceName"]:functionName()

I suggest making a client and a server lua. If you do that, you can just addEvent in any of them and do triggerServerEvent or triggerClientEvent.

all global variables (including functions) are shared between all the files of the same side within a resource so if you craete a function in client1.lua there should be no problem with calling it in client2.lua

exports are for sharing functions between resources
