UserInfo (engine.GetClientConsoleVariableValue) isn't initially networked.

[luttje]

This workaround will network updates to UserInfo, but only if it changes after being initially set.

experiment-source/src/engine/detours/baseclient_connect.cpp

Lines 229 to 247 in a9fa521

	void Engine_PlayerAllowNewUserInfo( CBasePlayer *pPlayer, const char *userInfoName )
	{
	unsigned short index = connectedClients.Find( pPlayer->GetUserID() );
	if ( index == connectedClients.InvalidIndex() )
	{
	DevWarning( "No client connect object found for player.\n" );
	return;
	}
	ClientWithNetChannel info = connectedClients.Element( index );
	KeyValues *conVars = GET_MEMORY_PTR( info.client, s_OffsetConVars, KeyValues );
	if ( conVars->GetString( userInfoName, nullptr ) == nullptr )
	{
	conVars->SetString( userInfoName, "" );
	}
	}

We need to somehow signal the client to quickly change and then reset that userinfo, otherwise it won't be networked...
