• On clicking on an item the client sends a Packet to the server, which responds with specifics to the radial menu which is then shown by the client.

• If the client does not receive a response to his numbered request, the standard radial menu for the item will be shown and the request will be resend until an answer is received.

• In the CU and NGE Packets I have seen the server response always included the standard radial choices. If the standard choices in the server response are not send, the Client will show the standard choices nevertheless, but the choice count in the radial menu will begin for the added options with 1 again.

• eg 1) unequip 2) examine 3)destroy 1)attack 2)invite to group 3) open in new window
