onEvent()

#1

I wanted to find out if the local client sends out an event (raiseEvent() ) does that same client receive the onEvent() call ? Do I need to check for isLocal for each onEvent raised?

If my player pushed the move up button  I want to send that move to everyone else in the game via raiseEvent(). Should I move my player when the button is pushed or should I wait for the onEvent() before moving the player?

By default client doesn’t receive that event. You can change this by setting ‘receivers’ option to ‘ReceiverGroup.All’ in raiseEvent method. See http://doc.exitgames.com/photon-cloud/api/lua/doc/modules/loadbalancing.LoadBalancingClient.html#instance:raiseEvent

Cool, that’s what I needed to know.
