Network Auto Spawn

Network Auto Spawn spawns an object on the network when the server instantiates it, so scripts that use a plain Instantiate (barrels, drops, impact effects) work in multiplayer without changes. Place it on the root of a network prefab, next to its NetworkObject.

✅ Ideal For

• Physical and homing projectiles, such as grenades and rockets
• Explosions and other impact effects
• Power-ups and other drops

⚙️ How It Works

  flowchart LR
    I["Instantiate on the server"] --> S["Spawn on the network"]
    S --> C["Clients get a copy"]
    C --> R["Server Only components removed"]
    L["Instantiate on a client"] --> X["Destroyed"]

• On the server, the object spawns on the network in its Start.
• On clients, the Server Only components are removed before they run, and a Rigidbody becomes kinematic. Add a NetworkTransform so the clients follow the server’s movement.
• A copy a client creates itself (for example a client weapon copy firing a rocket) is destroyed, so only the server’s object exists.
• The prefab must be in the NetworkManager’s network prefab list.
