Having problems with Network.Instantiate

The following code only spawns one character controller when I’m testing this (with two builds on separate computers connected to the same server). My problem is, I want it to spawn more than one character controllers(they are already prefabs in the variables) for every player in the game. Here’s the section of the code (changed a bit to make the question make more sense) I am using to make this happen:

var WhoIsEnemy : int
var IAmPlayer : int //defines which player number you are
var HowManyReady : int //defines how many players are ready to begin the game | not important

function RandomEnemy(){
	if(NetworkPeerType.Server)
	{
		WhoIsEnemy = Random.Range(1, (HowManyReady+2));
		Debug.Log("Enemy is Player " + WhoIsEnemy);
		networkView.RPC("EnemyIsF", RPCMode.All, WhoIsEnemy);
	}
}

@RPC
function EnemyIsF(EnemyIs : int){
	WhoIsEnemy = EnemyIs;
	StartGame();
}

function StartGame(){
	if(WhoIsEnemy == IAmPlayer)
	{
		Network.Instantiate(EnemyPrefab, transform.position, transform.rotation, 0);
	}
	else
	{
		Network.Instantiate(HumanPrefab, transform.position, transform.rotation, 0);
	}
}

Update: I’ve been working on changing this code to work and it still only spawns 1 character controller that every player controls. Help please.

In the editor , does it instantiate 1 Object , or 2 objects but both players control only 1
if it’s 2 Objects ,then you forgot to deactivate controls for the Player that is not “Yours” , you have to check if it’s yours using networkView.isMine , if it’s not yours simply deactivate the control scripts and the camera.
