Example
| Description | Those two functions perform the same task. |
|---|---|
| Used on | |
| Code | function SendData1(ply) umsg.Start("my_message", ply) umsg.String("hai") umsg.Long(1337) umsg.End() end function SendData2(ply) SendUserMessage("my_message", ply, "hai", 1337) end |
| Output | N/A |
Additional Notes
- Everything after the second argument will be sent into the usermessage
- Number values will always be sent as Longs, do not use this function if you want to send a large number of small values
- Passing a player entity for the recipientfilter is acceptable
- Passing nothing for the recipientfilter sends the message to all players
