From the Asset Store

Very simple code without excess options (15 events for server and 11 events for client)

Hey guys,

I got some files that contain start data, that is being modified later on. So I wanted to load the data from the files on game start to the local storage and when later modifying them I want to load them into the local storage again, so the changes can be found by everyone, whenever needed.

Is there a way to say an event should trigger only the first time the game is launched?

Hello there, if you're familiar with how local storage works, you could check for if a storage key exists on start of layout, if the key is missing, that means the game was never launched, in that case create the key and trigger that specific start event; if the key already exists, it will skip it
