NAF Shooter - bullets only show for others

[craftecode]

Hi there, in NAF Shooter it seems that the user who instantiates the bullets doesn't see them, only others participants do.

Sounds like 'attachTemplateToLocal' may be set to false for the bullets. Try setting that to true if it isn't already?

There is definitely an issue in the shooter.html example, but I don't know what yet. In js/gun.component.js createBullet is using el.setAttribute('networked', 'template:' + this.data.bulletTemplate); so defaulting to attachTemplateToLocal:true normally.

The user that created the bullet creates this:

<a-entity networked="" forward="" position="" rotation="" id="naf-46k69y7" class="bullet" scale="" color="#fff"></a-entity>

so not a-sphere so missing the material and geometry components, so not visible.
This is because in createBullet we do document.createElement('a-entity') and not document.createElement('a-sphere')

The other participants create element like this:

<a-sphere class="bullet" scale="0.1 0.1 0.1" color="#fff" networked="" material="" geometry="" id="naf-46k69y7"></a-sphere>

If now I change the template from

<template id="bullet-template">
  <a-sphere class="bullet"
    scale="0.1 0.1 0.1"
    color="#fff"
  ></a-sphere>
</template>

to:

<template id="bullet-template">
  <a-entity>
    <a-sphere class="bullet"
      scale="0.1 0.1 0.1"
      color="#fff"
    ></a-sphere>
  </a-entity>
</template>

The user that creates the bullet creates this:

<a-entity networked="" forward="" position="" rotation="" id="naf-42fa2om">
  <a-sphere class="bullet" scale="0.1 0.1 0.1" color="#fff" material="" geometry=""></a-sphere>
</a-entity>

The other participants create this:

<a-entity networked="" id="naf-42fa2om">
  <a-sphere class="bullet" scale="0.1 0.1 0.1" color="#fff" material="" geometry=""></a-sphere>
 </a-entity>

All good. I fixed it in d6ef569
