_type(any) [shared]

-- This is used internally by classes, but you can use it if you want.
local objectType = _type(any)
-- Example when using it
if _type(vehicle) == 'Vehicle' then
--stuff
end
if _type(player) == 'Player' then
--stuff
end

-- WARNING! Using pure lua type() wont get the type of the classes
if type(player) == 'Player' then
-- this don't work
-- will return 'table'
end

local hasMoney = TriggerServerCallback('cars:canBuyCar', 'cheetah')
if hasMoney then
-- stuff
end

RegisterClientCallback [client]

    if code == password then
         return true
    else
         return false
    end
end)

TriggerClientCallback [server]

TriggerClientCallback(source, eventName[, any**])
-- this is a synchronous function!

-- Example
local vehicleProps = TriggerClientCallback(source, 'vehicle:get:props')
MySQL.Sync.execute('UPDATE owned_vehicles SET props = @props WHERE plate = @plate', {['@props']=vehicleProps, ['@plate']=vehicleProps.plate})

RegisterServerCallback [server]

RegisterServerCallback(eventName, function)
-- register a callable event from client
