With dormancy disabled, it seems that actors marked as dormant are not registered as expected with Iris. Even if the actor is woken up or flushed before making changes to its properties, the client won’t receive the changes.
This seems to occur due to Iris using FReplicationSystemUtil::FlushNetDormancy to start replication for any initially dormant actors, as UNetDriver::FlushActorDormancy returns early if dormancy is disabled.
This does not occur with the generic replication system, as UNetDriver::ServerReplicateActors_PrioritizeActors only skips dormant actors if GSetNetDormancyEnabled is true.
Expected: the client will receive this new value
Actual: the client does not receive the property’s new value
There's no existing public thread on this issue, so head over to Questions & Answers just mention UE-365983 in the post.
