clientr.string

I'm abit confused with a read only, clientside string such as 'clientr.blah'. How would you set the data to it if its read only? Would you do it the same way you do any client.string?

I'm not really sure about this, but I think clientr.strings can be written serverside.

Again im not really sure, anyone wanna back this up?

Thats what I was guessing... But i'm not sure either.
Also, what would a good use be for using a clientr.string?

I'm guessing more secure?

If I remember correctly, they cannot be set/edited by the client, only read. They can be set/edited serverside, however. Security reasons, obviously.

Same with serverr. strings.

A good use...? Well, you could store information you wouldn't want somebody using a trainer to edit. Hats, for example. They were changed to clientr. when there were glitches in the .exe that allowed you to edit your flags if you knew them.
