Unity 多人倒数计时器

Question

I have a multiplayer game project that I am writing. I have a countdown timer in the game. This counter should work on all clients at the same time. For this, I send time from the server every second. is this a correct process? or should I let each clients calculate their own time?

Answer 1

Depending on the type of game, if you let the clients calculate their own time, that introduces the opportunity for cheating when users spoof the timing on their own machine.
