Description

This is an attribute that can be put on methods of NetworkBehaviour classes to allow them to be invoked on clients from a server.

[ClientRPC] functions are called by user code on UNET servers, and then invoked on corresponding client objects on clients connected to the server. The arguments to the RPC call are seriialized across the network, so that the client function is invoked with the same values as the function on the server. These functios must begin with the prefix "Rpc".

#pragma strict
public class Example extends NetworkBehaviour {
	var counter: int;
	@ClientRpc
	public function RpcDoMagic(extra: int) {
		Debug.Log("Magic = " + (123 + extra));
	}
	function Update() {
		counter += 1;
		if (counter % 100 == 0 && NetworkServer.active) {
			RpcDoMagic(counter);
		}
	}
}

	[ClientRpc]
	public void RpcDoMagic(int extra) {

		counter += 1;
		
		if (counter % 100 == 0 && NetworkServer.active)	{
			RpcDoMagic(counter);
