RepNotify from c++ confusion.

']In C++, the server does NOT automatically get the ReplicatedUsing function called, only the client does when it gets its update. If you want the server to call that function, you have to do so manually.

Sorry to revive this antique thread, but I’m really not following the logic here. What if I have a UPROPERTY which is BlueprintReadWrite and uses a ReplicatedUsing function? If the Blueprint changes the value, I have no way to manually call the OnRep function on the server.

e.g.:

UPROPERTY(BlueprintReadWrite, ReplicatedUsing = OnRep_MyFn)
bool bMyProperty;

UFUNCTION()
void OnRep_MyFn();

How would I make sure OnRep_MyFn is called on the server when the value is changed from Blueprint?

At the very least, I would let this behavior be modified by a metaflag on the property.
