I’m trying to setup vehicle selection in my current game. I’m saving the player’s choice of vehicle in the save game (via the game instance). In singleplayer, everything works fine. In multiplayer, I can’t seem to get a reference to the player’s vehicle choice no matter where I set it. I’ve tried setting it on in both the state & controller on begin play, I’ve tried setting it in the game instance itself and referencing that instead of the save, tried setting it at spawn time via client/server RPCs & replicated vars; nothing seems to work!
I understand replication basics, my multiplayer mode and replicated variables from player state for score etc. all work fine, but I can’t wrap my head around why this won’t work.
What is the proper way to check the client’s saved game for their preferred pawn/customization options and then spawn it on the server?
