Methods

GetClientOwnedObjects(ulong)

Returns a list of all NetworkObjects that belong to a client.

Declaration

public List<NetworkObject> GetClientOwnedObjects(ulong clientId)

Parameters

Type	Name	Description
ulong	clientId	the client's id LocalClientId

Returns

Type	Description
List<NetworkObject>	returns the list of NetworkObjects owned by the client

GetLocalPlayerObject()

Returns the local player object or null if one does not exist

Declaration

public NetworkObject GetLocalPlayerObject()

Returns

Type	Description
NetworkObject	The local player object or null if one does not exist

GetPlayerNetworkObject(ulong)

Returns the player object with a given clientId or null if one does not exist. This is only valid server side.

Declaration

public NetworkObject GetPlayerNetworkObject(ulong clientId)

Parameters

Type	Name	Description
ulong	clientId	the client identifier of the player

Returns

Type	Description
NetworkObject	The player object with a given clientId or null if one does not exist

InstantiateAndSpawn(NetworkObject, ulong, bool, bool, bool, Vector3, Quaternion)

Use this method to easily instantiate and spawn an instance of a network prefab. InstantiateAndSpawn will:

• Find any override associated with the NetworkObject prefab
  • If there is no override, then the current NetworkObject prefab type is used.
• Create an instance of the NetworkObject prefab (or its override).
• Spawn the NetworkObject prefab instance

Declaration

public NetworkObject InstantiateAndSpawn(NetworkObject networkPrefab, ulong ownerClientId = 0, bool destroyWithScene = false, bool isPlayerObject = false, bool forceOverride = false, Vector3 position = default, Quaternion rotation = default)

Parameters

Type	Name	Description
NetworkObject	networkPrefab	The NetworkObject of the pefab asset.
ulong	ownerClientId	The owner of the NetworkObject instance (defaults to server).
bool	destroyWithScene	Whether the NetworkObject instance will be destroyed when the scene it is located within is unloaded (default is false).
bool	isPlayerObject	Whether the NetworkObject instance is a player object or not (default is false).
bool	forceOverride	Whether you want to force spawning the override when running as a host or server or if you want it to spawn the override for host mode and the source prefab for server. If there is an override, clients always spawn that as opposed to the source prefab (defaults to false).
Vector3	position	The starting poisiton of the NetworkObject instance.
Quaternion	rotation	The starting rotation of the NetworkObject instance.

Returns

Type	Description
NetworkObject	The newly instantiated and spawned NetworkObject prefab instance.
