    Hello. Please tell me this isn't normal. Messages sent over Unet all arrive at a single object instance of the same type. They do not go to the networked instance of itself.

    make 2 of any object, spawn them over the network, get both instances to send a network message, on the networked computers instance number 2 will receive instance 1 & 2's messages.

    whyyy?

    Message handler functions are global/static. If you register a member function on an instance, then that object will get all the messages.

    If you want to send a message to an object, use a static function and pass a NetworkInstanceId in the message and lookup the object using ClientScene.FindLocalObject or NetworkServer.FindLocalObject.
