Unity messaging problem - cant send from client to server
Hi guys! I really cant handle a problem with sending messages. Every time when I try to send message i get "NullReferenceException: Object reference not set to an instance of an object Message+MasterClient.RegisterHost (System.String name) (at Assets/Message.cs:27) Message.Update () (at Assets/Message.cs:34)". Here is my code, please help if possible
Client: using UnityEngine; using UnityEngine.Networking;
public class Message : NetworkBehaviour
{
class RegisterHostMessage : MessageBase
{
public string gameName;
public string comment;
public bool passwordProtected;
}
class MasterClient
{
public NetworkClient client;
public const short RegisterHotsMsgId = 888;
public void RegisterHost(string name)
{
RegisterHostMessage msg = new RegisterHostMessage();
msg.gameName = name;
msg.comment = "test";
msg.passwordProtected = false;
client.Send(RegisterHotsMsgId, msg);
}
}
void Update()
{
MasterClient mast = new MasterClient ();
mast.RegisterHost ("works");
}
}
Server: using UnityEngine; using UnityEngine.Networking; using System.Collections;
public class ServerStart : NetworkBehaviour {
void Start()
{
Debug.Log ("Registering server callbacks");
}
void Update()
{
NetworkServer.RegisterHandler(888, OnMessage);
}
void OnMessage(NetworkMessage netMsg)
{
Debug.Log ("Client get");
}
}
Sorry, there's a lot of problems here, you really should learn the programming basics before you try something like this.
In case you're wondering what's wrong:
Why is this not instantiated (what causes your error):
public NetworkClient client;Why are you doing this in the Update() instead of Start():
MasterClient mast = new MasterClient ();Again, why are you doing this every frame:
NetworkServer.RegisterHandler(888, OnMessage);
Cackeslice, thank you for your answer! I am indeed new in coding, but I obviously know that Updade func is a frame func. The problem is that if I paste "NetworkServer.RegisterHandler" in start func literally nothing happens. I just tried an example: using UnityEngine; using UnityEngine.Networking; using System.Collections;
public class ServerStart : NetworkBehaviour {
void Start()
{
Debug.Log ("Registering server callbacks");
NetworkServer.RegisterHandler($$anonymous$$sgType.Connect, OnConnected);
}
void Update()
{
}
void OnConnected(Network$$anonymous$$essage net$$anonymous$$sg)
{
Debug.Log ("Client connected");
}
}
But it works only if I paste "NetworkServer.RegisterHandler" in update func, or else - just nothing, not even an error. Can you help me with this issue?
If it is possible, could you please share an example of code?
