Resetting network objects with a button

You can add a button to your scene that will reset one or more network objects to predefined coordinates. For example, you can add a reset button to a cornhole game that returns all of the beanbags to their starting points.

For each network object, you create a game object that defines the desired reset transform. To trigger a reset, you call the UpdateAllTransformValuesManualViaReference method of the network object, and pass a reference to the game object that defines the reset transform.

The following diagram shows an example of how to arrange the components for a single network object in Unity, and the required references.

Example use of a button to reset a network object's position

You can use a single button to reset multiple network objects. Ensure that you create a game object to define the reset transform of each game object, and then add a reset call to each network object in the button's OnClick event list.
