[Unstable - bug / mod feature request] Clients do not send commands they do not know

[NilanthAnimosus]

• [x] I have searched the issue tracker to check if the issue has already been reported.

Version Unstable - 0.9.7.0

Not really a bug since it doesn't effect the base game but I was implementing a custom command on the server-side, to find the client would not send it for the server to check.

My client was repeatedly stating (Inc. quotes): Command "commandname" not found.

regardless of the combination I used, the command appears in my dedicated servers autocomplete, and on the dedicated servers side I cannot see a reason for it to skip the command using breakpoints anywhere that text appears in the entire solution, so I feel this is a client problem.

If a mod has server-side only commands, despite all they really need is the command, a string, and perhaps the cursor position without the client having modified files - it limits ones options. the client appears meant to be able to send a command even if it does not have it, yet it appears not to be doing that.

Could support for sending console commands/strings that do not exist clientside (But perhaps server side) be implemented or reimplemented if its a bug? It already would support sending the screen coordinates and other information, its just not letting them through.

Additionally, the command had been listed in the clients permissions, though naturally does not appear in the list of given permissions for the client (Perhaps there would be a way to amend this to include commands a client does not have?)

Waiting for confirmation from Nilanth

Tested, working correctly in 0.9.703.0 using a custom command on the server, that was not present in my unmodified steam unstable build.

Should you wish to test this yourself though, I have given proper perms to use the command (Well, almost any command really) to rokvach and juan on my server, which contains this command:

teleportsub|movesub (Expected args, 0, dependant on cursor, teleports an entire submarine)

As a note, if your using DEBUG clients, it will be an actual command that does completely different stuff, if your using unstable or release however - it will not exist.

Final note, the command will not appear in the clients allowed commands because it does not exist on their side (but gladly, works now)

Confirmed working, closing.
