Description

Sets a networked integer (whole number) value on the entity.

The value can then be accessed with Entity:GetNWInt both from client and server.

See Entity:SetNWFloat for numbers that aren't integers.

There's a 4095 slots Network limit. If you need more, consider using the net library or Entity:SetNW2Int. You should also consider the fact that you have way too many variables. You can learn more about this limit here: Networking_Usage
Running this function clientside will only set it for the client it is called on.
This function will not round decimal values as it actually networks a float internally.
