Triggers to the clientside

Do triggers to the clientside work with the new engine?

I have an NPC weapon.
It sends a trigger to a DB.
The DB extracts the data requested.
The DB returns the data to the player.

The problem is, once it returns to the player I need it to send an action to the clientside, telling the weapon that it got the data. It doesn't receive the trigger to the client.

NPC Code:

function onReturnData(category,list) {

  triggeraction(0,0,"clientside",#N,category,list);

}

//#CLIENTSIDE

function onActionClientside() {

  player.chat = "Received.";

}

onReturnData is being called properly.
onActionClientside isn't being called at all.

And I don't have v4, so triggerclient isn't an option.

Try onactionclientside

I do believe that triggeractions are Case Sensitive.

EDIT:
I do believe there is a triggerclient function as well. Might want to check into it.

If Velox's suggestions don't work, try changing #N to the weapon's name. Maybe mixing old GScript with new is causing problems.

Nope.

Nope, I've already tried both. :/

If you are using the new engine, why are you using old engine constructs?

HTML Code:

function onReturnData(category, list)
{
  player.triggerclient(player.weapon.name, temp.category, temp.list);
}

//#CLIENTSIDE
function onActionClientside()
{
  player.chat = "Received.";
}
