Bug (IN-25762) [1.0.0-pre.44] Enableable component causing critical bug

Enableable component is really awesome feature but sadly it causing critical bug to my production project. I think this critical bug needs to be fixed asap that I believe it's affecting a lot of production projects. I would like to get the hotfix as soon as official figure out the fix. At editor everything working nicely and correctly. But when u just try build and run server runtime then editor as client connect to server, you will see the game will not working properly and spamming error. I try to list down as following:

1) When a ghost child entity has Foo Enableable component with [GhostComponent(SendDataForChildEntity = true)] and [GhostEnabledBit] and another Bar Enableable component without [GhostComponent(SendDataForChildEntity = true)] and [GhostEnabledBit], the data at Foo Enableable component will fail to sync to client side. Let say at server Foo Enableable component set bool to true then at client side Foo Enableable component the bool will still forever set to false

2) When a parent ghost entity has Foo Enableable component without [GhostComponent(SendDataForChildEntity = true)] and [GhostEnabledBit] and you set to disable at authoring baker, it's disable properly at editor but it's enable at runtime build that causing the entire system logic goes wrong and keep spawn spamming ghost entity until crash the runtime for my project

3) This bug can reproduce at both editor and runtime. When a parent ghost entity has FooComponent that has int [GhostField] and its child entities have 3 Enableable components has bool [GhostField] with GhostComponent(SendDataForChildEntity = true)] and [GhostEnabledBit], FooComponent at client side sometimes will failed to sync int value properly that will suddenly become extremely large int value then back to normal again

 

How are you even using Netcode in a production project... I couldn't do anything because there's so little documentation. Hats off to you

 

Sadly it's still not fixed at 1.0.0-pre.44 release. The error below is the EnableableComponent at child ghost entity that has NetworkTick data field but without any [GhostEnabledBit], [GhostComponent] and [GhostField]. Another EnableableComponent at parent ghost entity is also without any [GhostEnabledBit], [GhostComponent] and [GhostField] but dun have any data field that serves as a Tag component although not have error but it will cause client keep spamming entity that keep instantiate new ghost entity caused by the EnableableComponent not being disable properly at baker I believe.

Looks like my issue is similar to Occuros. I will try the hotfix or next new release first as mentioned at Occuros post.
