<cat>gameevent</cat> <title>OnRequestFullUpdate</title> <structure> <realm>Shared and Menu</realm> <description> Called when a player requests a full update from the server. Called Clientside when the Update is received or when another player requested a full update. <note> When this event is called the first time for a client, <page>net</page> messages will be reliably received by the client. This gameevent is called twice for the player, because it is first called serverside and networked, but then also called clientside. </note> <warning>⤶ <bug issue="6465">⤶ If `sv_parallel_sendsnapshot` is enabled, then this gameevent **won't** be called reliably since currently gmod discards of gameevents from other threads. </warning>⤶ </bug>⤶ </description> <fields> <item type="string" name="networkid">The SteamID the player has.
