Adjusting the Debug Level can be enormously helpful in fine-tuning or debugging your game’s networkingThe Unity system that enables multiplayer gaming across a computer network. More info See in Glossary behaviors. When it is set to 0, only errors from networking will be printed to the console.
The data that is sent at the Sendrate intervals (1 second / Sendrate = interval) will vary based on the Network View properties of each broadcasting object. If the Network View is using Unreliable, its data will be send at each interval. If the Network View is using Reliable Delta Compressed, Unity will check to see if the Object being watched has changed since the last interval. If it has changed, the data will be sent.
