    I second this. Following code worked fine in 5.5, throws the error above now in 2017.

    public class SimpleEmptyMsg : SimpleMsgBase
    {
    public static SimpleEmptyMsg reusable = new SimpleEmptyMsg();

    public static void Command(short msgtype, int channel = Channels.DefaultReliable)
    {
    //reusable.value = _value;
    SendCommand(msgtype, reusable);
    }

    public static void RPC(short msgtype, NetworkConnection conn = null, int channel = Channels.DefaultReliable)
    {
    SendRpc(msgtype, reusable, conn);
    }

    }
