A way to get the return value of a function

[Cassandra]

Is there a way to get the return value of a function using triggerServer/ClientEvent?

[Castillo]

There's no way as far as I know.

[Cassandra]

Any alternatives?

Send back the returned value to the client/server with an another triggerClient/ServerEvent.

Could work, But i don't recommend it ..

Because adding to much triggers make lag ..!

You could use element data, but element data does lag too AFAIK.

There's no way to send the data between server and client without using any bandwidth.

[Cassandra]

I want to use bandwidth but I don't want to use setElementData or another trigger function. Will it be possible to reference that variable?

[DiSaMe]

Element data and event triggering are the only general ways to send the data between server and client. What's wrong about using those functions?

Alright seem like I have to use that anyway. I have a problem though. Does anyone know why setAccountData doesn't set floating values? My player's position is a bit messed up for that.

I'm not sure what you mean. The only type you can use as account data is string. It all depends on how you convert the values between strings and other data types.

setAccountData doesn't take in decimal values. It coverts them to whole number.

Then use strings and convert them later to a number perhaps?
