Ah yes, I have been wrestling with this issue for "put a graphic on the
screen denoting a destination from a server side entity" I have decided to
take the easy route that you could possibly take as well.
In hl2mp_gamerules.h
Under the class definition you can add this,
CNetworkVar(bool, m_bCurrentSpellType);
And to hook it up between the client and server you can add to this
BEGIN_NETWORK_TABLE_NOBASE( CHL2MPRules, DT_HL2MPRules )
#ifdef CLIENT_DLL
RecvPropBool( RECVINFO( m_bCurrentSpellType) ),
#else
SendPropBool( SENDINFO( m_bCurrentSpellType) ),
#endif
END_NETWORK_TABLE()
And just include hl2mp_gamerules where you need to and do this to work the
variables between client and server.
CHL2MPRules *pRules = HL2MPRules();
pRules->m_bCurrentSpellType = false;
This is probably the wrong way to do this :P Heck, it might horrify someone
from Valve so much they write out a best use guide again :P
