mnSendTCP

This is used in server (mnStartServer) and client (mnConnect) state to send the specified packet via TCP.

Performance note: blocking send operations perform better than non blocking operations. Most noticeable performance differences occur when sending large packets or when sending a large number of packets.

Parameters

int Instance: This is the instance that the command should use.

long long int Packet: This is the packet that the command should use.

int ClientID: This is the client ID of the client to send to. This can be ignored in client state and can be set to anything.

bool Keep_packet: This specifies whether or not the specified packet should be cleared after it is sent (false) or if it should be left unchanged (true).

bool Block_until_sent: If this parameter is true the command will block until the packet has been sent. If this parameter is false the command will return immediately and if the packet has not yet been sent it will be sent later.

Returns (Integer)

0 if the packet was sent successfully straight away.

1 if the packet has not been sent but will be sent later.

-1 if an error occurred. In server state (mnStartServer) clients are automatically dropped and in client state (mnConnect) the client automatically disconnects if an error occurs. This is done using mnDisconnectClient.
