Text On Canvas Won't Update

I have a text component that is changed in my script, however the change does not appear on the canvas until after I stop running the game. How do I get the change to appear at runtime?

Code (CSharp):

1. using UnityEngine;
2. using System.Collections;
3. using System.Collections.Generic;
4. using System.Linq;
5. using UnityEngine.Networking;
6. using System;
7. using UnityEngine.Networking.NetworkSystem;
8. using UnityEngine.UI;
9. public class Player : NetworkBehaviour {
10.     public Text turn_count_drop; //assigned in unity
11.     int turnCount = 0;
12.     [SyncVar (hook = "ChangeMyTurn")]
13.     public bool myTurn = false;
14.  
15.  
16.     void ChangeMyTurn(bool value){
17.         Debug.Log("CHANGE MY TURN CALLED");
18.         turnCount += 1;
19.         Debug.Log(turnCount);
20.         turn_count_drop.text = turnCount.ToString();
21.         myTurn = value;
22.     }
23. }

I get the "CHANGE MY TURN CALLED" and turnCount messages in console.

 

have you tried making turn_count_drop / turncount a syncvar?

 

No I haven't, but code inside ChangeMyTurn is executed client side, correct? So I don't see what that would help.

EDIT:

Code (CSharp):

1.         if (isClient)
2.         {
3.             Debug.Log(turnCount + " turnCount client");
4.         }

I added this bit inside ChangeMyTurn to insure the value is updating appropriately client side, it is.

 

Code (CSharp):

1. using UnityEngine;
2. using System.Collections;
3. using System.Collections.Generic;
4. using System.Linq;
5. using UnityEngine.Networking;
6. using System;
7. using UnityEngine.Networking.NetworkSystem;
8. using UnityEngine.UI;
9. public class Player : NetworkBehaviour {
10.     public Text turn_count_drop; //assigned in unity
11.  
12.  
13.     void Update(){
14.         turn_count_drop.text = "dog";
15. }
16. }

This similarly does not update the text on the canvas.
