Event question

[myjobisgop]

For example, I trigger client event in server by triggerClientEvent. In client that event cancels. How can I know on the server about that this event has been cancelled on the client?

A possible way to realize that would be to trigger a serverSide Event as a response to that Client event.

If after, for instance, two seconds, the event is not triggered (server-sided one), it means it has been canceled.

Like:

From Server > Client

Client responses to server

No response? cancelled

Renkon, How to check that there was no response from the client?

[Renkon]

Let's say you trigger to the Client an event called "carEntered", as an example.

We can do the following clientside.

addEventHandler("carEntered", root, 
function() 
     -- bunch of code 
     triggerServerEvent("checkEvent", localPlayer) 
end ) 
  

So we trigger a check to the Server.

And we can take a look like this:

isChecked = false; 
  
addEventHandler("checkEvent", root,  
function() 
     isChecked = true; 
end) 
  

If necessary, after triggering the client event you could create a timer counting 2000 miliseconds to then check if isChecked is true.

Do you get what I mean now'

I never tried this function, but I think you should try it:
