#Command only working on host and not non-host clients?

I'm wondering if maybe I'm misunderstanding how Command works

{
    if (!isOwned) { return; }

    if (Input.GetMouseButtonDown(1))
    {
        Debug.Log("A");
        CmdRightClick();
    }
}

[Command]
private void CmdRightClick()
{
    Debug.Log("B");
    Ray ray = cam.ScreenPointToRay(Input.mousePosition);
    if (Physics.Raycast(ray, out RaycastHit hit, 1024, clickMask))
    {
        MoveClick(hit);
    }
}

[Client]
private void MoveClick(RaycastHit hit)
{
    agent.SetDestination(hit.point);
    Debug.Log("C");
}

So I'm doing a basic right click to move mechanic here, but for some reason this only works on the host but not the non-host clients.
On Host the debug prints out A,B and C and on non host it's only A
There is no error or warnings on either
Am I approaching this wrong? My understanding is that Command is used from client to request the server to run the function

Not sure if relevant but here's my custom NetworkManager that is used to spawn

[SerializeField] private 
MatchSpawnPosition spawnA;

public override void OnStartClient()
{
    lobbyCamera.SetActive(false);
}

public override void OnStopClient()
{
    lobbyCamera.SetActive(true);
}

public override void OnServerAddPlayer(NetworkConnectionToClient conn)
{
    if (!NetworkClient.ready)
    {
        NetworkClient.Ready();
    }

    GameObject player = Instantiate(playerPrefab, spawnA.Points[Players.Count].position, spawnA.Points[Players.Count].rotation);
    NetworkServer.AddPlayerForConnection(conn, player);
}```

Your not passing over any parameters, your current setup presumes players all have cameras inside their player prefabs?

#

Any yellow warnings in console saying trying to send command without authority?

Only thing on console is those ABC debug above when the editor is host and only A if the editor is the non host

#

I did try to bypass authority by setting requires authority to false, still same issue

#

Not sure how helpful this is but here's the setup of the other components on the network manager object

So any player that sends command, will always use servers input.mouse position

# 
private void Update()
{
    if (!isOwned) { return; }

    if (Input.GetMouseButtonDown(1))
    {
        Debug.Log("A");
        Ray ray = cam.ScreenPointToRay(Input.mousePosition);
        if (Physics.Raycast(ray, out RaycastHit hit, 1024, clickMask))
        {
            CmdRightClick(hit);
        }
    }
}

[Command]
private void CmdRightClick(RaycastHit hit)
{
    Debug.Log("B");
    MoveClick(hit)
}
#

@slow moat Makes sense?

Ah yep that does make sense, but it still didn't fix it unfortunately

When the editor is non host I still have the same issue of only A being printed but not B or C

I debugged hit.point in the Update during the raycast as well as at Debug B. I got the correct values for the Update but for B, it was 0,0,0. But I thought the values were being passed over by calling CmdRightClick(hit) in Update?

#

Regarding the hit.point debuggingn, I should point out this applies to both host and non-host
All players

#

An additional debugging I found that for both host and non host netIdentity.connectionToServer returned a connection but for the non host netIdentity.connectionToClient returned null
But since we made it past the isOwned check doesn't that mean the client is owned?

Which console are you checking? 'B' will only fire on the host console, not client editor console. Also you can't send a raycast hit through a command, mirror won't serialise that. Just send the raycast hit position as a vector3.
