util.AddNetworkString#512343
<function name="AddNetworkString" parent="util" type="libraryfunc">⤶
<description>⤶
Adds the specified string to a string table, which will cache it and network it to all clients automatically.&lt;br&gt;⤶
Whenever you want to create a net message with <page>net.Start</page>, you must add the name of that message as a networked string via this function.⤶
⤶
If the passed string already exists, nothing will happen and the ID of the existing item will be returned.⤶
⤶
<note>Each unique network name needs to be pooled once - do not put this function call into any other functions if you're using a constant string. Preferable place for this function is in a serverside lua file, or in a shared file with the <page>net.Receive</page> function.</note>⤶
<note>The string table used for this function does not interfere with the engine string tables and has 2048 slots.</note>⤶
