Moving the host updates on both host and peer. When moving the peer, it moves a bit, but keeps resetting to the starting position. Is there a way to make sure that the peer also moves? I'm not using simulate Left, Right, Up, and Down, but a fanastick and fanapad.

If the peer position bounces back to the original position, that means that the host either not receiving the peer inputs or not properly applying the peer's inputs to movement.

The host is authoritative - if the peer events move an object but the host does not, the host will correct the peer.

That's what I think i'm doing, but for some reason, I keep getting errors. Either that, or i'm setting it up wrong.

What's a number type? Wondering where I set that.

I´m assuming expvalue is the experience value. This is probably a number value and the error sounds like you try to set it to a string and not a number. I don´t know where or why this happens but I´d assume it happens somewhere in the multiplayer when you change the expvalue to a variable or a value received by the multiplayer plugin. Try using int(value) or float(value) and see if it helps.

This is a wild guess tho.
