Trouble syncing player model animation over network

Question

Hey all every time my player spawns in I get this error Exception in OnStartClient:Object reference not set to an instance of an object at Playersetup.OnStartClient () [0x0003c] Have no clue why, Here is the part its referring to public override void OnStartClient() { base.OnStartClient();

         string _netID = GetComponent<NetworkIdentity>().netId.ToString();
         Player _player = GetComponent<Player>();
         GameManager1.RegisterPlayer(_netID, _player);
     --->        playerAnim.GetComponent<NetworkAnimator> ().SetParameterAutoSend(0, true);
     }

Why does this happen??

Turns out just exiting unity going to bed and waking up the next morning did the trick

Have you tried rpc ? js example :

 function Start() {
     nView = GetComponent.<NetworkView>();
     nView.RPC("PlayAnimationWalk", RPCMode.AllBuffered);    
 }
 
 
 @RPC
     function PlayAnimationWalk () {
     playerAnimator.CrossFade("Walk",0.2,-1,0);
     }

That's despite the point. Network view is depreciated.... Doesn't matter anyways since some how just restarting the unity project fixed it
