thanks in advance

:stir::For the register/login buttons I used the following if conditions::stir::

if (Network.isClient)
{
login = true;//or register for the other button
networkView.RPC(“Send”, RPCMode.Server, name, pass, login, register);
login = false;//or register for the other button
}
I ran this inside OnGUI under the button code:

if (Network.isServer&&login==true){ //or register
login=false;//or register for the other button
//regular code that was executed when button was pressed
}
and the following RPC:

@RPC
function Send(name:String,pass:String,login:Boolean,register:Boolean,info:NetworkMessageInfo)
{
if ( Authenticate(name,password,login,register) )
{
networkView.RPC( “OnRegisterSuccess”, info.sender );
}
else
{
networkView.RPC( “OnRegisterFailure”, info.sender );
}
}

thanks for the reply

can point in the right direction -
can i use visual basics to achieve this?
where would put the code?
how can i display the information after the card holder has login in?

thanks
