[C#] player.Handle different on server/client

FiveM Resource Development Discussion

Hey guys,

so I just found out that player.Handle on serverside is different from player.Handle on clientside. I do not know if this is supposed to be like that but it makes no sense to me.

Server side:
player.Handle starts from 1, when reconnected, it’s 2, it never(probably) goes back older values

Client side:
player.Handle starts from 0, when reconnected, it’s again 0, another player would be 1. If the first player reconnects, his player.Handle is 0 again.

Either this, or my code is completely wrong. You can test this if you wish, but I’ve literally spent so much time testing and it makes me lose my mind

in client-side at least in LUA the playerID or Handle as you call it its Ped ID not player…
You can get the real playerID using this:

GetPlayerServerId(PlayerId())

In LUA i dont know how to get it in C# but i think there should be a similar way

Yes, this is a correct observation and happens due to inherent properties of the interim network model currently used.
