# Network Proximity Checker
|
||
|
||
The Network Proximity Checker component controls the visibility of game objects for network clients, based on proximity to players.
|
||
|

|
||
- **Vis Range**
|
||
Define the range that the game object should be visible to observers.
|
||
- **Vis Update Interval**
|
||
Define how often (in seconds) the game object should check for observers entering its visible range.
|
||
- **Check Method**
|
||
Define which type of physics (2D or 3D) to use for proximity checking.
|
||
- **Force Hidden**
|
||
Tick this checkbox to hide this object from all players.
|
||
|
||
With the Network Proximity Checker, a game running on a client doesn’t have information about game objects that are not visible. This has two main benefits: it reduces the amount of data sent across the network, and it makes your game more secure against hacking.
|
||
|
||
This component relies on physics to calculate visibility, so observer game objects must also have a collider component on it.
|
||
|
||
A game object with a Network Proximity Checker component must also have a Network Identity component. When you create a Network Proximity Checker component on a game object, Mirror also creates a Network Identity component on that game object if it does not already have one.
|
||
|
||
Scene objects with a Network Proximity Checker component are disabled when they're out of range, and spawned objects are destroyed when they're out of range.
