HIya, going to ask a bit more from you so we have some basic syntax on messaging-system.md page, then there is a section on RPC's which goes into more detail. there is also a section in Learn on RPC's v NetworkVariables. are we missing something specific or is it just a more detailed example that you would like to see?

@Briancoughlin Something in the messages.md or another page which clarifies this part of the API reference docs

Questions which come to mind:

• How to send messages using NetworkManager? how to do it using CustomNetworkMessages?
  None of these are never described in the doc.
• what are the performance characteristics of these two? what is sent on the wire for them? a comparison to uNet's messages which were being identified using a short message code is appreciated too.

[ashkan-saeedi-mazdeh]

It is really great that messages are flexible and we don't have to send named ones and unnamed ones with custom protocol can be sent.

The fact that visibility check is a method with no abstraction on top and we are free to form messages that we want in the way we want makes this really mid-level and I hope we can scale it to high numbers in the future

Thanks for the feedback! We'll get further information added to the docs for this!
