UNET Client Cant Send Server Commands, Host Can

Question

So as the title suggests, I'm having a problem where commands being sent by the client are not triggered.

The basic functionality I'm trying to get working is that when an enemy is in front of the player and I click, that player will be momentarily stunned. Works fine if I'm host, and both sides perfectly register.

If I'm playing as client, I get to the point where the command "should" be sent, but I notice I get a warning that says "Trying to send command for non-local player". As well, nothing happens on either end. Obviously I must be doing something wrong client side, but have no idea what other way to go about this.

The "problem" code.

            if (Input.GetButtonDown("Fire1")) {
            Ray ray = new Ray(transform.position, transform.forward);
            RaycastHit hit = new RaycastHit();
            Physics.Raycast(ray, out hit, 20f);
            if (hit.transform != null) {
                if (hit.rigidbody != null) {
                    PlayerController controller = hit.rigidbody.GetComponent<PlayerController>();
                    if (controller != null) {
                        if (!controller.stunned) {
                            // Send the stun command to the server
                            controller.CmdStun();
                        }
                    }
                }
            }
        }

The method calls

[Command]
public void CmdStun() {
    // Report that the stun was sent
    UnityEngine.Debug.Log("Stun Sent");
    RpcStun();
}

[ClientRpc]
public void RpcStun() {
    // Activate the stun timer.
    stunTimer.Start();
    // Track the players original color.
    normalColor = manager.color;
    // Make the players bot look like its shut down.
    manager.InitiateColorChange(Color.black);
    // Other code will check against this before trying to send another stun command.
    stunned = true;
}

Answer 1

I guess you are calling a command on a gameobject you spawn by networkserver or the object has existed the scene already. Anyway, the object is not a playerprefab that you assign it in the NetworkManager's SpawnInfo.

So, for those Object that 'Trying to send command for non-local player'. You need to give their NetworkIdentity a 'Authority' which enable them to call [Command].And to give them 'Authority' you should use

NetworkIdentity.AssignClientAuthority(connectionToClient).

And, as a fact NetworkIdentity.AssignClientAuthority may only call on a server. You need an other [Command] on 'Player' to 'AssignClientAuthority'.
