mercuryus OP Unregistered M	(3DGS-networking) Hi! When I connect a client to a server and create an entity this entity remains if I "kill" the client by pressing the window-close-button (upper right x). This happens also if I ent_remove the entity on_exit. The EVENT_LEAVE ist triggert on the server. How can I eliminate clients entites if the client was killed?

EDIT: of course, that event has to run on the server, not on the client that is killed. Last edited by SchokoKeks; 09/03/09 09:43. my gameDev Blog
