Old Notes (temporary):

In multiplayer camCreated objects are only visible locally (meaning they are client-side effects). In version 1.90+ createVehicle is a valid replacement (with special consideration to locality). You can also use camCreate to create objects. For example: flare1 = "flare" camCreate getPos gameLogic_1 However, soldier units created in this way have little or no AI.
