Assets

Net.update_asset(server_path, content)​

  • content: string

Modifies the asset in memory and updates any clients that have downloaded the previous version of this asset.

Net.remove_asset(server_path)​

Unloads the asset from the server, preventing the asset from being shared to clients.

Net.has_asset(server_path)​

Returns true if the asset exists.

Net.get_asset_type(server_path)​

Returns "text" | "texture" | "audio" | "data"

Net.get_asset_size(server_path)​

Returns the asset's size in bytes.

Note some assets are compressed when loaded by the server and may differ from the size on disk.

Net.provide_asset_for_player(player_id, path)​

Allows for assets to be sent ahead of time to reduce apparent server hiccups.

Calling in response to player_request will cause cached files on the client to be ignored.

Net.provide_package_for_player(player_id, path)​

Similar to Net.provide_asset_for_player, but also loads the package on the client.

This does not "install" packages on the client. Use Net.offer_package() or Net.refer_package() for that use case.

Calling in response to player_request will cause cached files on the client to be ignored.
