how to add a data to "player" class

[swordjjjkkk]

SERVER SIDE:
local play=FindMetaTable("Player")
play.abc=1

i want to send a number to client,so i write these code,i hope i can get ply.abc in client side but i fail.
i get confused . do i have to use net.send or something?
does there any chance to accomplish by my way? thank you

Well, using the net library would be the easiest way rather than trying to do metatable stuff like you're doing - [URL="https://wiki.garrysmod.com/page/Net_Library_Usage"]there's a tutorial here that might help[/URL]

Couldn't you just do this?

BroadcastLua( [[abc = 1]] )

Can someone tell me why this isn't true (Looking at the amount of disagrees I have)?

Use Player:SetTeam( number ) on the server, and then Player:Team() on the client

[Potatofactory]

Use network variables

if SERVER then
      player.GetAll()[1]:SetNWInt("abc", 1)
else
      print(player.GetAll()[1]:GetNWInt("abc", 0))
end

Clientside should print 0 if abc does not exist and 1 or whatever value abc is.
