Client events are not communicated to the Tygron Engine and are usually a graphical effect for the stakeholder who triggered the event. Examples of this include the flashing of an action menu or an indicator to draw the user's attention, or the visualization of a weather effect, such as a rain storm.
How do Client Events relate to the Tygron Platform
Client Events can be used on multiple locations in the Tygron Platform; as part of a measure, as part of a larger Event Bundles in an Action Menu, or during a cinematic sequence. Client Events do not communicate with the server, but trigger a reaction locally on the user's system.

Click the Add Event button at the bottom of the right panel to create a default NO_DEF event. Selecting an Event on the list and using the 'Remove Event' button deletes the event from the list.
