| I setup "object pooling", but the problem with bullets spawning behind the player at high speeds still exists. |
Also, the pooling causes the bullets to randomly be visible. In the image above, notice you can see a white sphere in the left screen, but nothing is visible in the right screen - even though the bullet is still colliding and producing no errors or warnings!
Maybe the network data isn't being sent fast enough to fully activate or sync the object? I think these must be bugs or I'm attempting to do something the Unity networking system wasn't meant to do...
So, I have three options right now...
- significantly reduce the player movement speed (so bullets don't spawn behind player)
- create a firing system that relies on raycasts, instead of real bullet collisions.
- or, find a new networking system.
I'm putting this project on hold until I figure out what to do.
