Note that the function you provide as argument is *not* transferred to the remote client or server. You will have to use either

1. functions defined in global namespace
2. functions defined both in server and client code if you separate it using conditions on isServer or local player
3. pre-defined BIS functions

You can also execute scripts remotely like this: ["myScript.sqf","BIS_fnc_execVM",true,true] spawn BIS_fnc_MP; Or transfer code as parameter (not recommended) like that: ["{hint "Hello World!";}","BIS_fnc_spawn",true,true] spawn BIS_fnc_MP;
