MULTIPLAYER CAMERAS Multiple Players + Individual Camera = Multiple Cameras in Scene Problem: Whenever a new player joins the Camera will switch. Solution: Disable Camera by default, only activate it for Local. Player.

NETWORKANIMATOR The Network Animator component allows you to synchronize animation states for networked objects. It synchronizes state and parameters from an Animator. Controller. Note that if you create a Network Animator component on an empty Game. Object, Unity also creates a Network Identity component and an Animator component on that Game. Object.

[COMMAND] Commands are sent from player objects on the client to player objects on the server. For security, Commands can only be sent from YOUR player object, so you cannot control the objects of other players. To make a function into a command, add the [Command] custom attribute to it, and add the “Cmd” prefix. This function will now be run on the server when it is called on the client. Any arguments will automatically be passed to the server with the command. More info: https: //docs. unity 3 d. com/Manual/UNet. Actions. html

[CLIENTRPC] Client. Rpc calls are sent from objects on the server to objects on clients. They can be sent from any server object with a Network. Identity that has been spawned. Since the server has authority, then there no security issues with server objects being able to send these calls. To make a function into a Client. Rpc call, add the [Client. Rpc] custom attribute to it, and add the “Rpc” prefix. This function will now be run on clients when it is called on the server. Any arguments will automatically be passed to the clients with the Client. Rpc call. More info: https: //docs. unity 3 d. com/Manual/UNet. Actions. html

SYNCVAR Sync. Vars are variables of scripts that inherit from Network. Behaviour, which are synchronized from the server to clients. When a Game. Object is spawned, or a new player joins a game in progress, they are sent the latest state of all Sync. Vars on networked objects that are visible to them.
