Is my understanding of RPCs correct?

Question

Hello, I have made a simple debug RPC function that does the following:

@rpc
func print_to_console():
	print("---",\
		"\n rpc sender peer:        ", multiplayer.get_remote_sender_id(),\
		"\n rpc receiver peer:      ", multiplayer.get_unique_id(),\
		"\n node executing the rpc: ", name ,\
		"\n node's authority peer:  ", get_multiplayer_authority(),\
		"\n---")

If I understand correctly:

  • if the mode is authority, then if sender peer != node's authority, then the call will throw an error
  • if the mode is any_peer, then the call is allowed even if sender peer != node's authority
  • if the sync is call_local, the call will be executed locally and remotely (sender peer == receiver peer will appear)
  • if the sync is call_remote, the call will be executed to all remote peers but not on the local (sender peer == receiver peer cannot appear)

Is that correct?
Thank you for your help
