Retrieving a client ConVar value

[JasonMan]

So I'm using this script

util.AddNetworkString( 'GoToSpec' )
util.AddNetworkString( 'ReturnFromSpec' )

function SpecCommand( ply, text, public )
	if ( string.sub(text, 1, 5) == "!spec" ) then 
		if ply:GetInfoNum( "ttt_spectator_mode", 0 ) == 0 then
			net.Start ( 'GoToSpec' )
			net.Send ( ply )
		else
			net.Start ( 'ReturnFromSpec' )
			net.Send ( ply )
		end
		return("")
	end
end
hook.Add( "PlayerSay", "SpecCommand", SpecCommand )

For some reason ply:GetInfoNum can't get the ttt_spectator_mode value and always returns 0.
I've tried using other ConVars (sv_cheats, cl_clock_correction) and they don't work either.

You can't use it server side to get a client side ConVar...

Fixed.
I just got the ConVar client-side

Serverside code:

util.AddNetworkString( 'speccommandstring' )

function SpecCommand( ply, text, public )
	if ( string.sub(text, 1, 5) == "!spec" ) then 
		net.Start ( 'speccommandstring' )
		net.Send ( ply )
	end
	return("")
end
hook.Add( "PlayerSay", "SpecCommand", SpecCommand )

Clientside code:

function CommandSpec()
	if GetConVar("ttt_spectator_mode"):GetInt() == 0 then
		LocalPlayer():ConCommand( "ttt_spectator_mode 1" )
		LocalPlayer():ChatPrint( "You are now spectating!" )
	else
		LocalPlayer():ConCommand( "ttt_spectator_mode 0" )
		LocalPlayer():ChatPrint( "You are no longer spectating!" )
	end
end

net.Receive( 'speccommandstring', CommandSpec )
