Hi there,
i really love unreal engine, but recently, something went wrong. problem is that, when i try to test multiplayer features, and i have one “Server” and one “client” player, clients screen goes black, and then changes level to my menu screen ( default level). but it first seems to be on server, as screen (for a short time period) shows a string that is printed by server.
Does anybody have similar problems? Am i doing something wrong?
Hi JFK-Games,
Which version of engine are you using? Are you using Blueprints or C++ to implement multiplayer features? Can you show us what you’re doing to connect client to server, either through code or screenshots? Are you able to reproduce this in a new project, or only your existing project? Please also show what you’re doing to print string. Any other details for your setup may also help. Thanks!
Hi JFK-Games,
We haven’t heard back from you in a while, so I’m resolving this post for tracking purposes. If you’re still experiencing this issue, please respond to questions asked above. Thanks!
Im really sirey for not responding in time, but i totally forgot about this question after i discoveret solution for bug: it seems that i have had a reliebile funktion called onTick. Not sure why this occurs, but as soon as i removed funktion (e.g. made it unrelieble), everything worked fine. By way: i’m using UE 4.6
Ah, okay, this may be same as a bug we had in 4.6 (UE-4901) involving reliable rpcs. bug report hasn’t been resolved yet, but I just checked in 4.7 Preview 7, and it appears to be working again. Can you try to make a copy of project in Preview 7 and try again with reliable replicated function on tick?
Hi JFK-Games,

" clients screen goes black, and then changes level to my menu screen ( default level)"
something like that also happens on my project too.but it also get fixed automatically.hard to reproduce
Hi Muzaheed,
Are you calling a reliable function on Tick? Which version of engine are you using? If you’re able to find consistent reproduction steps, please let us know.
