SendToClient

info

This method is only available on ServerScripts

Sends a NetworkEvent to a client with a given name, message type, and object array data.

danger

Data in the object array MUST be serializable over the network!

Parameters

Parameter Name	Parameter Type	Parameter Description
userid	string	The UserId to send the data to
eventName	string	The name of the event to be identified
data	object[]	An Array containing data to send.
messageChannel	MessageChannel	The MessageChannel to send data over. Use this based on how often you send data between the server and the client.

note

• The messageChannel parameter is default at MessageChannel.Reliable
• The data parameter can be null

The example below listens for the numbers message (see SendToServer example), and then relays it back to the client with all the numbers plus one with the event name newNumbers.

JavaScript

Events.Subscribe(ScriptEvent.OnUserNetworkEvent, new SandboxFunc(engine).SetAction((userId, eventName, eventArgs) => {
    if(eventArgs === undefined)
        return
    switch(eventName){
        case "numbers":{
            let newData = []
            for(let i = 0; i < eventArgs.length; i++){
                let number = eventArgs[i]
                newData.push(number + 1)
            }
            NetworkEvent.SendToClient(userId, "newNumbers", newData)
            break
        }
    }
}))

Lua

Events.Subscribe(ScriptEvent.OnUserNetworkEvent, SanboxFunc().SetAction(function(userId, eventName, eventArgs)
    if eventArgs == nil then return end
    if eventName == "numbers" then
        local newData = {}
        for _, number in ipairs(eventArgs) do
            table.insert(newData, number + 1)
        end
        NetworkEvent.SendToClient(userId, "newNumbers", newData)
