How can I spawn a player prefab via script in a multiplayer game?
Hello, i want to create a multiplayer fps. But with different player prefabs. So i cant use the player spawning of the network manager. Can somebody help me?
Hi,
You can store your player prefabs in the Resources folder in your assets. Then you can spawn the player through script by using:
GameObject prefab = (GameObject)Resources.Load("Name_Of_Your_Prefab");
GameObject player = Instantiate(prefab);
Transform t = player.transform;
//Set postion, rotation and parent of your player here:
Yes I tried this before. But then I wasnt able to see the other players in the network.
I would suggest looking at this live training tutorial from Unity for some basic tips when making a 3d shooter: http://unity3d.com/learn/tutorials/modules/intermediate/live-training-archive/fragmas-2-multiplayer-fps
if you want to be able to change the prefab that gets spawned you could for example have a menu when you connect to the server where you can choose your "class"/prefab, and then spawn the correct one based on that selection.
