When NetworkManager.StartHost() is called with invalid ConnectionData in Unity Transport, the NetworkManager is irrecoverably shutdown

Open tangx246 opened this issue 3 years ago • 3 comments

Description

If we call NetworkManager.StartHost() and it fails to connect due to invalid IP address format (e.g. "127.0.0."), then the NetworkManager shuts itself down and seems to be unable to retry a connection even if the ConnectionData is fixed

Reproduce Steps

  1. Have a NetworkManager
  2. Add a Unity Transport
  3. Set ConnectionData.Address to "127.0.0." (invalid IP address)
  4. Call NetworkManager.StartHost()
  5. Set ConnectionData.Address to "127.0.0.1"
  6. Call NetworkManager.StartHost()

Actual Outcome

StartHost() fails and there appears to be a memory leak as well

Expected Outcome

StartHost() is successful
