NetworkServer.SendToAll *not* sending message to local client?

I'm trying to use NetworkServer.SendToAll to send a custom "preparegame" message from the server to all connected clients. That works, except that the local client doesn't receive the message. Is that a bug or for some reason that I don't quite understand intentional? I'm quite sure that the local client is listening for the message.

 

Players are connected to a custom lobby, sending the message occurs (or should occur) when the host clicks a "Start Game" button. Message is correctly received by connected remote client player objects that are listening to it (both the authorative and non-authorative ones) but not by the local client objects.

 

Yes it is - AFAIK I would get an "network message unknown" error if it wasn't.

 

Code (csharp):

1.  
2. if (client.isConnected)
3.   {
4.   //this will execute for the client (if youre the host, this will also run).
5.   client.RegisterHandler(MyMsgType.MessageData, RecieveMessage);
6.   }
7.   if (isServer)
8.   {
9.   //this will execute for server (if youre the host, this will also run).
10.   NetworkServer.RegisterHandler(MyMsgType.MessageData, RecieveMessage);
11.   }
12.  

If youre host, the client and server will register the handler.

 

It seems that, if the connection is created by using NetworkServerSimple, NetworkServer.SendToAll() doesn't work. This was the case I ran into.

 

@standardcombo1 if that's true then it must not work at all in 5.3 because the NetworkServer seems to mostly just be a wrapper for NetworkServerSimple now. I may be running into this issue now, or it may just be that I'm doing something dumb. I swear this was working before though.
