Hi @gewoon_kiefer. I'm kapa.ai, your friendly support bot. I will try to answer your question by searching through the knowledge base. :wave: ---------------------- To destroy an object that has a RealtimeView but not a RealtimeTransform, you should use the Realtime.Destroy() method rather than Unity's standard GameObject.Destroy() method. This ensures that the object is properly destroyed across all clients in the room. Here's how to do it:

// To destroy a GameObject with a RealtimeView
Realtime.Destroy(gameObject);

// Alternatively, you can pass the RealtimeView component directly
RealtimeView view = gameObject.GetComponent<RealtimeView>();
Realtime.Destroy(view);

// To destroy a GameObject with a RealtimeView
Realtime.Destroy(gameObject);

// Alternatively, you can pass the RealtimeView component directly
RealtimeView view = gameObject.GetComponent<RealtimeView>();
Realtime.Destroy(view);

Both approaches will work the same way. The Realtime.Destroy() method must be used instead of Unity's GameObject.Destroy() for any objects that were instantiated with Realtime.Instantiate() or that have a RealtimeView component Room > Ownership and Lifetime Flags. It's worth noting that if the object is owned by another client and has preventOwnershipTakeover set to true, you may not be able to destroy it unless you're the owner. In such cases, it's generally recommended to have the client that owns the object destroy it:

if (realtimeView.isOwnedLocally) {
    Realtime.Destroy(gameObject);
}

if (realtimeView.isOwnedLocally) {
    Realtime.Destroy(gameObject);
}

This approach helps prevent errors that can occur when multiple clients try to destroy the same object simultaneously Room > Common Questions. ---------------------- Note: you can ask me a follow up question by @ mentioning me again :speech_balloon: ----------------------

can't destroy scene views and can't destroy stuff before proper connection

gewoon_kieferOP•3w ago

i properly connected

Mechabit•3w ago

you can only destroy stuff instantaited at runtime

gewoon_kieferOP•3w ago

so i would need to spawn the object i want to destroy before i can destroy it?

Mechabit•3w ago

if you need to destroy a scene object you can hide it instead

gewoon_kieferOP•3w ago

oke how do you sync the

 gameObject.SetActive(false);

 gameObject.SetActive(false);
