So yeah guys, here I am again with some custom scripts. Basically I'm not going to go into too much detail because there's really not a whole lot you need to know. In BO2 there is no SetClientDvar or GetClientDvar functionality, so setting dvars for clients was impossible right? Well that's not entirely the case anymore. These two functions allow you to save integers and strings for clients and retrieve them even after the game has ended. It's pretty simple. Let's say we were using this for verification. I would call SetClientDvar to a dvar named "rdc_Verified" with "Verified" as the value and it would save to a dvar with the client's name and value. The format would be name=value; The values are saved in a custom dvar. The dvar string is then split up in GetClientDvar and each value is matched up with the client's name you want to retrieve the value for. The client would then have Verified status upon returning to the match. This could also be used for saving client's menu positioning or anything else that you want the client to be able to save. To clear this up for you, no this is NOT for setting host-only dvars on clients. This is for saving variables for clients!
I've also included 2 extra functions StringContains and getIndexOf (both required). If you know C#, you'll be familiar with what these 2 functions do.
One thing to mention is that I don't know how much data the dvar's can hold!
Also be sure NOT to thread the function! This could cause unwanted results!

There's really no credits needed, as these functions were written by me. So yeah, enjoy.

Like SC58 said, it's just for Verification and saving strings/integers, so when a game ends you'll have access to those strings/integers. Not actually setting host/game dvars on clients. I figured to call it SetClientDvar because it was saving data for the client.

you called it "SetClientDvar" so people would view the thread #ClickBait :troll:
