How to check distance between two players (photon multiplayer)

You have to think of networking a little bit differently. This of it like this: When you run your game each client creates everything on their build. All that is being passed is that data that you want, in this case the transforms of the player position. When receiving data you then apply that data to the player from it's photon ID.

Example: Player 2 starts his game, and then creates a instance of player 1 and 2 in his game.

1. player 1 is at Vector(0,0,0) and moves to Vector(5,0,0)

2. player 2 sees HIS instance of player 1 still at Vector(0,0,0) becase nothing has been updated.

3. Player 1 sends position of new vector to network.

4. network sends to each player (Dependent on what RPC or what observe mode you have)

5. Player 2 Receives the new vector and applies that vector to HIS instance of player 1

At any time player 1 or 2 could have done a distance check to see how far apart they are, there is little difference between networking and non networking other than the way you handle properties.

@arain55 Just do like normal Vector3.Distance(player1gameObject.transform.position, player2gameObject.transform.position);
