Scene Managment

ObjectNet provides a powerful system for synchronously loading and unloading scenes across all connected clients. This is essential for transitioning between game levels, zones, or UI states in a multiplayer environment.

Remote Scene Loading

You can remotely load a scene on all clients using:

NetworkManager.Instance().LoadSceneRemote(
    string sceneName,
    RemoteSceneLoadMode serverLoadMode = RemoteSceneLoadMode.LoadAfter,
    LoadSceneMode loadMode = LoadSceneMode.Single,
    float loadTimeout = 10f
);

Parameter	Description
sceneName	The name of the scene to load
ServerLoadMode	Whether the server loads first or after the clients (Default: LoadAfter), either way they both will open the scene simultaniously
LoadMode	Unity’s scene load type (Single or Additive)
LoadTimeout	Maximum time to wait for all clients to load their scenes, prevent clients from hanging if one fails to load

//example
NetworkManager.Instance().LoadSceneRemote("Level1", RemoteSceneLoadMode.LoadAfter, LoadSceneMode.Single, 10);

---

Remote Scene Unloading

To unload a scene from all clients at once, use:

NetworkManager.Instance().UnloadSceneRemote(
    string sceneName,
    RemoteSceneUnloadMode serverUnloadMode = RemoteSceneUnloadMode.UnloadAfter,
    float loadTimeout = 10f
);

Just like loading, the server can wait for clients or unload first, and a timeout ensures consistency across slower machines.

Important Notes

• These methods must be called from the server or host

• Scene names must be added to Unity's Build Settings

• Timeouts prevent clients from hanging if one fails to load

• Use LoadSceneMode.Additive if you want to keep the current scene loaded
