    It's my understanding that NetworkSettings(channel=1) only makes SyncVars unreliable, correct? I've added ClientRpc(channel=1) to my RPC declaration, and I get no errors, but I have no way of detecting if its actually sending unreliably. Can anyone confirm?

    Hi !

    Per default the channel 1 is unreliable.
    Check in the NetworkManager component, advance section.

    Yep, I get that... I just don't see anywhere in the documentation that says you can add (channel=1) and have RPC's use the unreliable channel, it only mentions it for commands and syncvars. Obviously you can add it and I don't get any errors, but I have no way of knowing if its actually working.

    You're right there is no info about that.
    In the source code it seems ok to use the channel in ClientRpc.

    I guess we need an official answer ^^
