positionLerpRate

How fast to move the networked versions position to the desired location.

Exposed Value Type Default Value
public float 17.0f

Back To Top

rotationLerpRate

How fast to move the networked versions rotation to the desired rotation.

Exposed Value Type Default Value
public float 17.0f

syncAnimations

Sync the animations of the object across the network.

Exposed Value Type Default Value
public bool true

syncAnimatorWeights

Sync the animator layer weights across the network.

Exposed Value Type Default Value
public bool true

syncPosition

Sync the position of this transform across the network.

Exposed Value Type Default Value
public bool true

Back To Top

syncRotation

Sync the rotation of this transform across the network.

Exposed Value Type Default Value
public bool true

syncTriggers

Attempt to sync triggers (if syncAnimations is true). If triggers are still not synced then you must use an RPC to do so, no other method will work.

protected virtual void BuildAnimatorParamsDict()

Will find all the animator parameters in the selected animator controller and store those types and names as a key value pair dictionary for later reading and syncing over the network. Also starts trigger watchers if syncTriggers is true.

Expose Value Overrideable Returns
protected True Does not return anything

No parameters

Back To Top

protected virtual void NewPlayerEnteredOrLeft()

Will send the position and rotation of this object to all others on the network. The networked versions will receive this information and will snap to the position and rotation received. Sent via RPC.

Expose Value Overrideable Returns
protected True Does not return anything

No parameters

Back To Top

protected virtual void OnDestroy()

This is only used to remove the need to call the NewPlayerEnteredOrLeft function from the OnPlayerNumberingChanged delegate

Expose Value Overrideable Returns
protected True Does not return anything

No parameters

Back To Top

protected virtual void Start()

Attempts to find the animator, if none is found will disable syncing animations. Also builds the parameter dictionary to sync across the network as they change. Makes use of the OnPlayerNumberingChanged delegate provided by Photon to call NewPlayerEnteredOrLeft function.

Expose Value Overrideable Returns
protected True Does not return anything

No parameters

protected virtual IEnumerator SyncTrigger(string triggerName)

A simple thread that is dedicated to watching for when a trigger is fired. When fired it will fire and RPC to the other networked versions to update theirs. This is unreliable as it doesn’t always catch the trigger. For a more reliable method find where the trigger is being fired and in that function make this RPC call.

Expose Value Overrideable Returns
protected True  
Parameter Name Description
triggerName The trigger name to watch and update over the network

Back To Top

protected virtual void Update()

Used to smoothly rotate and move to the position of the owner. This is only run if this is the networked version.

Expose Value Overrideable Returns
protected True Does not return anything

No parameters
