I am making a multiplayer game using Unity Netcode. When my player object approaches a planet object, I want to parent the player object to the planet so it moves with it. How should I do this please?

Trying to use RPCs, it seems to be difficult to get it to happen when playing as the client. I have no idea how to do it properly and can't find suitable tutorials.

  • In general physics in networked multi-user experiences is always a big topic ... If you do physics server sided the own client will always have uncanny delays - however for something like your planets the physics can not be handled client sided ... Commented Jul 9, 2024 at 16:07
  • So are you saying that reparenting to a moving object will never work? Commented Jul 9, 2024 at 16:12
  • Be careful dual-tagging a question with C and C++ tags. You're apt to incur the wrath of the denizens of the tags unless your question is about the interoperability of C and C++. I think you should choose one of the two language tags and delete the other. Your call on which language you're primarily working in. Commented Jul 9, 2024 at 16:13

  • You want to attach your player to the planet. The planet can have multiple containers, such as one for orbiting objects. Have the planet develop a method where it appends a player or other object to one of its containers; maybe prefer one method per container. Commented Jul 9, 2024 at 20:02
