Title: Network Variable
Post by: edufurla on October 14, 2015, 11:10:45 AM

I am trying do something very simple using Playmaker Network, but I can't figure out what I am doing wrong.
I have a string var with Network Sync enable and Playmaker in the Network view.
When I change this var in server instance, all clients can see the change, but when I change this var in a client instance, the server do not update the var. The variable changes only happen from server to client.
Is it possible a client change a global var or only the server can do it?

Hi,

 that's a interesting question. What server are you using? I never ran a Unity server, so I can't help you here.

 I would make sense actually, since otherwise it would be clashing, that a client can set a global var, all clients would then have race condition trying to all set the global variable.

Bye,

I am using the standard Playmaker Network example scene whit a little addition.
I have a button to set a variable to a value and a ugui text that show me this var.
I start the server and connect the client.
If I press the button on server instance the var changes on client, but if I press the button on client instance nothing happens on server or other clients.

Hi,

 Can you send the scene as a package. I'll repro here. But basically it seems actually logical as a behavior.
