What is the purpose of "join"?

function deposit(temp.amountToDeposit) {

I understand that "deposit" is a custom function. Is it being called by the triggerserver command? And how is "temp.amountToDeposit" assigned a value? I assume triggerserver is passing the value of the chat, similar to how tokenize worked in GS1, to the function?

Does including the variable name in the function act similarly to assigning the variable value? Like "temp.amountToDeposit = player.chat.substring(9).trim());" ?

function onActionServerSide(temp.cmd, temp.amount) { 
  if (temp.cmd == "deposit") { 
    this.deposit(temp.amount); 
  } 
} 

Again, how does "temp.cmd" and "temp.amount" get assigned values? In the deposit function I can sort of understand that triggerserver calls the function. Does "onActionServerSide" also catch the values that are being sent? Maybe it would help if you posted the format of how triggerserver is to be used.

Thanks, these were things I didn't really consider. So mostly join is used for convenience?
