    It seems like sometimes ghost component that the data field has [GhostField] attribute will sync weird data at client side. Currently I changed 4 regular components to become enablable components at child ghost entity then the ghost component at parent entity I start getting weird data at client side.

    There is an issue with IEnableable component in some cases, but it never affected other components, for what I'm aware of.
    Can you describe what it the ghost setup?

    Maybe it's not caused by IEnableable component. The issues of ghost component that the data field has [GhostField] attribute will sync weird data at client side most likely is already exists long time ago before IEnableable component. If u still can't reproduce the issue maybe I can pm my project for u to look at it.

    We have test that validate many of these condition (components on childs, enableable or not). And because we didn't experience any problem with ghost filed replication (well, we had in the past, but they manifest usually in a completely different way, usually deserialisation errors).
    Probably, worth checking the project or snippets of the ghost that is causing that issue

    Now at latest 1.0.0-pre.15, it's still have the issue. You can check my project to see issue. If u still can't see the issue I will provide u new update. And also at 1.0.0-pre.15, there's funny issue that when didn't put [GhostEnabledBit] tag at EnableableComponent it's still working that able to sync ghost component data to client but buggy. If I remember correctly, changelog mention that without [GhostEnabledBit] tag it won't sync ghost component data to client. I believe this unexpected behavior also trigger other new potential bug.
