Sync Transform

SyncTransform keeps a scene object's transform in sync across the session. Add it to the object you want synced and it creates its own Sync Entity. No scripting required.

Component Inputs

Name	Type	Description
Network Id Type	Object Id or Custom	How the network id is generated. Use Object Id for an object that exists in the scene at edit time. Defaults to Object Id.
Custom Network Id	string	Shown when Network Id Type is Custom. Must be the same on every client. Defaults to enter_unique_id.
Position Sync	None, Location, Local, or World	Which position space to sync, or None to skip position. Defaults to Location.
Rotation Sync	None, Location, Local, or World	Which rotation space to sync. Defaults to Location.
Scale Sync	None, Location, Local, or World	Which scale space to sync. Defaults to Location.
Persistence	Ephemeral, Owner, Session, or Persist	How long the store outlives its owner. Defaults to Session.
Sends Per Second Limit	int	Caps how often transform updates are sent. Defaults to 10.
Use Smoothing	boolean	Interpolates remote values instead of snapping. Defaults to false.
Interpolation Target	float	Shown when Use Smoothing is on. Defaults to -0.25.

The Sync Entity this component creates is always Unowned, so any client may write to it. If you need ownership control, build it yourself with Sync Entity and StorageProperty.forTransform.

Choosing a send rate

Ten sends per second is a deliberate default: it is smooth enough for most gameplay without risking rate limiting. Raise it only for something fast and close to the camera, and turn on Use Smoothing rather than raising the rate if the motion looks choppy. Smoothing costs nothing on the network.
