Detailed Description

A very simple example of a class derived from NetObject.

This object exists purely for instructional purposes. It is primarily geared toward developers that wish to understand the inner-working of Torque 3D's networking system. This is not intended for actual game development.

Example:

// On the server, create a new SimpleNetObject.  This is a ghost always
// object so it will be immediately ghosted to all connected clients.
$s = new SimpleNetObject();

// All connected clients will see the following in their console:
// 
// Got message: Hello World!
