 The `OnValueChanged` example shows a simple server-authoritative `NetworkVariable` being used to track the state of a door (open or closed) using an RPC that's sent to the server. Each time the door is used by a client, the `Door.ToggleStateRpc` is invoked and the server-side toggles the state of the door. When the `Door.State.Value` changes, all connected clients are synchronized to the (new) current `Value` and the `OnStateChanged` method is invoked locally on each client.
