Question about manager instancing

In regards to this line from the tutorials

“The assetManager object is an com.jme3.asset.AssetManager instance that every com.jme3.app.Application can access”

Does this imply that two Simple Applications running as part of the same java app share a asset manager. In my case, a client/server setup, with server being headless?

If not, is it safe to assign the clients asset manager to the server in place of its inherit one?

Well both Simpleapplications should have a seperate assetmanager,
but even if not the assetmanger is threadsave ect. So it would not create problems usually.

How many applications do you want in your application? <insert ‘yo dawg’ pic here>
