    I was wondering how I would be able to update some UI text over the network.
    Basically I have a UI text above my player and I am displaying his name and hp, and I want it to update on the network.

    I tried some things like SyncVar but not sure how to use this using Text types since SyncVar supports only (int,float,string and some other)

    You not need sync the UIText component, just the string / name.
    and apply in Local Client (Text.text = NameSyncVar)
