Toggle object between server and client

I am making a game with UNET that has only two devices (two players). There will be one gameObject that both the players will interact, which will be present in either server side (player 1) or client side (player 2) at any point of time. I don't want both the devices to spawn the gameObject.

How can I toggle the visibility of the gameObject in client, if a bool is true? Please help, it is quite urgent. The bool is a SyncVar

Code (CSharp):

1.     //P1: Server = true, P2: Client = false
2.     [SyncVar(hook = "jump")]
3.     public bool where = true; //is in server

I am trying this piece of code, but its not working.

Code (CSharp):

1.     void jump(bool where)
2.     {
3.         Debug.Log("WHERE changed to " + where + " isServer? " + isServer);
4.  
5.         if (isServer && where)
6.             GameObject.Find("player(Clone)").GetComponent<SpriteRenderer>().enabled = where;
7.         else
8.             GameObject.Find("player(Clone)").GetComponent<SpriteRenderer>().enabled = false;
9.     }

 

Hey,

Perhaps this will help you: http://docs.unity3d.com/Manual/UNetVisibility.html

 

This triggers the visibility when the player prefab is nearby. My scenario is more like there is only ONE object in the whole game. Both clients and server can interact with it (individual player prefabs won't be there in the game scene).

 

You need to have the object spawned on both to be able to use it with the high level networking stuff(SyncVars, Command, etc.). If you are only using a single object on both sides, then you will need to use messages to control it properly, since the client won't be able to do anything to it otherwise.
