Why do we use [serialized field] ? i can skip it!

Hi
i tried to send the position with serialized field and without it
the code works fine on both
i think its smoother with serialized field but i am not sure

i don't want to post my code cause i just want to know why do we use it when we are networking?

 

I assume you're talking about the [Serialise Field] attribute.It's not specific to networking. It exposes the variable to the editor so you can assign values in the editor in the same way as public fields. As public fields are automatically exposed to the editor, you don't need it for public fields. However, sometimes you don't want to make an variable public just to expose it to the editor, you might like to keep it private. This is the case when it's most useful.

There may be other usages that I'm not aware of.

 

It can (and should) be used to encapsulate fields. Read more here: http://wp.me/p4kypp-fR
