===================
I have this code. The debugger confirms that the player who owns the object is the local player before setting the sync'd variable pokeMessage.
However, pokeMessage never propogates until the second time I interact for some reason.
Is there something blocking the sync from occuring? Does checking the sync variable in update halt it's ability to sync between clients?
Since the player changing the variable is the owner, it should propagate, but it doesn't the first time. Please help. I have a test world as well for debugging.
