Godot Replicator Node Plugin
Adds a Replicator node that can replicates properties with interpolation and spawning and deletion of nodes between server and client without any code.
Usage
Add a Replicator node to the node that has properties you want to replicate with all clients. This could be a RigidBody for example.
Write the properties you want to replicate in the Replicators Members To Replicate text field. For example, if you want to replicate the position and rotation of a RigidBody, type in transform.
Every line should be a new property.
| Exported Property | What it does |
|---|---|
| Replicate Automatically | Call replicate_members in a specified interval |
| Replicate Interval | The interval at which to call replicate_members |
| Replicate Spawning | Spawn on puppet instances when spawned on the master |
| Replicate Despawning | Despawn on puppet instances when despawned on the |
| Despawn On Disconnect | Despawn when the master disconnects |
| Spawn On JoiningPeers | Spawn on newly joined peers |
| Interpolate Changes | Use a generated Tween sibling to interpolate new |
| Logging | Log changes of members on puppet instances |
How it works
The Replicator node uses Godot's high level networking API.
It adds Tween siblings if interpolate_changes is true, which interpolate the old value to the new value when replicating, and a timer which calls replicate_members on timeout.
The plugin adds an autoload singleton called "RemoteSpawner" to spawn nodes on newly joined peers.
It also removes "@"s from nodes names to be able to replicate node names, as it's impossible to use "@"s when setting a node name.
Example: @Bullet@2@ becomes Bullet2
