DIFFERENCE BETWEEN CLIENT and SERVER

hay everyone, i'm trying to have a game where if you are a client start in one position, and if you are the server start in an other position, the thing is that i don't know which variable shows whether if the player who is playing is a server or a client
my intention is make an if...
if (is a client)
spawnsphere.position = (3 4 5);
if (is server)
spawnsphere.position = (5 7 8);
the other thing is, there will be a problem if i use the same spawnsphere for both client and server, i don't really know if can cause an error later.

All of your spawning behavior can be controlled from the spawnsphere/marker object itself. Tell it what class of object you are spawning, give it a datablock of what you want to spawn, and let it know what script function (if any) to execute when the spawn is initiated.
You can have as many as you want. You can group them in different simgroups if you wish. Players, bots, objects even can all be spawned from a randomly selected spawnpoint in a group.
