UNET - How do I properly instantiate Rigidbody2D over network?

Questions & Answers

So I’ve started working with UNET to set up multiplayer in a project I’m playing around in and it works great EXCEPT for one thing: I don’t actually know how to properly instantiate a Rigidbody2D anymore and then get it to move…

Prior to UNET I would usually do something along the lines of:

void Update()
{
    if (Input.GetButtonDown("Fire1"))
    {
         Rigidbody2D clone = Network.Instantiate(bullet, gun.transform.position, transform.rotation, 0) as Rigidbody2D;
         clone.GetComponent<Rigidbody2D>().AddForce(transform.up * bulletSpeed);
    }
}

This no longer works with UNET. I’ve tried using NetworkServer.Spawn(bullet) and I’ve registered the GameObject with the NetworkManager and this sorta works; however, this causes my bullets to sit idle after firing…

Suffice to say, UNET is awesome but not being able to find documentation on how to properly instantiate a Rigidbody and whatnot is kinda frustrating…

Any help would be awesome.

Hey, Im trying something similar and I got it working (PS sorry for the weird alignment, I cant seem to do anything about it):

    GameObject rocket = Instantiate(RocketObject, rocketSpawnLocation.transform.position, Quaternion.identity) as GameObject;
    Vector2 crosshairLocation = new Vector2(crosshair.transform.position.x, crosshair.transform.position.y);
            Vector2 spawnLocation = new Vector2(rocketSpawnLocation.transform.position.x, rocketSpawnLocation.transform.position.y);
            Vector2 direction = new Vector2(crosshairLocation.x - rocket.transform.position.x, crosshairLocation.y - rocket.transform.position.y);
            direction.Normalize();
            direction *= (rocketSpeed * 100);
    rocket.GetComponent<Rigidbody2D>().AddForce(direction);
    NetworkServer.Spawn(rocket);
    Destroy(rocket, 2.0f);
