Lag Compensation

Another very important feature for precision based gaming is lag compensation. This is the act of rolling back colliders in time to where a client had seen them; this ensures accurate hit registration. This technique is applicable to several genre types but is most commonly seen in shooter games.

Automatic Code Stripping

Code stripping helps protect your game server by removing sensitive logic that the player should not be aware of. Far as we know, Fish-Networking is the only solution with the ability to remove server code from clients, and client code from the server.

Network Level of Detail

Level of Detail determines how often the server sends updates to clients. With level of detail enabled moving objects can expect to use up to 95% LESS bandwidth. Other aspects of Fish-Networking benefit marginally from network level of detail as well.

Extrapolation, NetworkTransform

When enabled the NetworkTransform will extrapolate as necessary to create a smoother experience for unstable connections.

Synchronized Parameters, NetworkAnimator

Customize which parameters are synchronized over the network on the NetworkAnimator.

Yak

​Yak is a transport which provides an entirely offline experience using your multiplayer code. When combined with Multipass (available to free users), you may run your game offline or online.

Lobby and Worlds

Lobby and Worlds is designed to use a single server for a lobby containing your players, as well create games on the same server using rooms created by your players. Each room is isolated from other players, both visually and in network traffic.

Many aspects of the lobby can be customized to your needs. Lobby and Worlds allows you to design your game normally in it's own scenes, while the project takes care of everything else.

Features include:

Loading any number of game scenes, multiple times; think dungeon instances!
Sign in system.
Lobby to create and join rooms.
Join rooms after start, optional.
Password rooms.
Ready up system, optional.
Kick players.
Player limits.
Customizable lobby logic and demo game.
