Example 2

house1 addEventHandler ["HandleDamage", 
{
    if (isServer && { _this select 9 == 2 }) then { (_this select 0) spawn { forceHitPointsDamageSync _this; } };
    if (_this select 7 find "glass" >= 0) then { _this select 2 } else { 0 };

Multiplayer

Static buildings synchronisation should be executed on the server as the server is the authority in building damage and you would want every client in MP to have the same level of damage as the server has.
