Problem Calling an RPC

OjosLindos

I'm creating a multiplayer app in Unity using PUN2. Can anyone explain why I'm getting the following message in the Console?: PhotonView with ID 1 has no (non-static) method "StartMusicWithDelay" marked with the [PunRPC](C#) or @PunRPC(JS) property! Args: Double, Double

The following code is on a game object with a PhotonView component in the scene:

public override void OnPlayerEnteredRoom(Player newPlayer)
    {
        gameObject.GetComponent<PhotonView>().RPC("StartMusicWithDelay", RpcTarget.AllBuffered, startTimeFirst, hostDSP);
    }

The following code is on the player prefab, which has a PhotonView component:

[PunRPC]
    void StartMusicWithDelay(double _startTimeFirst, double _hostDSP)
    {
        double hostMachineTime = _hostDSP + 1;
        double localStartTime = AudioSettings.dspTime + 1;
        double timeSinceStart = (_hostDSP - _startTimeFirst) % clipLength;
        int samplePosition = (int)(sampleRate * timeSinceStart);
        audioSource.timeSamples = samplePosition;
        audioSource.PlayScheduled(localStartTime);
        Debug.Log("StartMusicWithDelay was called.  _hostDSP = "+ _hostDSP+". _startTimeFirst = "+_startTimeFirst);
    }

Hi @OjosLindos;

From the ViewId 1, we can guess that the PhotonView that you try to use for the RPC "StartMusicWithDelay" is attached to a scene object and not a player object.
Scene views' IDs are between 1 and 1000 by default.
Actor number 1's views' IDs are between 1001 and 2000.
...

This code gameObject.GetComponent<PhotonView>() returns a PhotonView attached to a scene object. The script that has OnPlayerEnteredRoom callbacks you quoted is attached to the same GameObject as that PhotonView.

Try getting the correct PhotonView for the player prefab.

Thanks for getting back to me, @JohnTube. I moved the first code shown above (previously in a scene object script) to the same script the second code is on (player prefab). The "StartMusicWithDelay" RPC is now called.
