Please note that the function makes the visual effects (lightning model and light) visible only to the client on which the function was executed.
The explosion sound, crater and damage will only be generated (globally) on the client where the target is local or the target curator is local to the client.
If you want to call lightning globally, you must call this function on all clients:
// consider remoteExec limitations by CfgRemoteExec [target, nil, true] remoteExec ["BIS_fnc_moduleLightning"];
