How do you add or find the params to add for public NetworkDriver(INetworkInterface netIf, params INetworkParameter[] param);?

When I go to the meta data for INetworkParameter[] all I get is as follows.

#region Assembly Unity.Networking.Transport, Version=0.0.0.0, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=null
// Unity.Networking.Transport.dll
#endregion

namespace Unity.Networking.Transport
{
    public interface INetworkParameter
    {
    }
}

Send

I want to send an array of bytes which contains a data type and the x, y, z position of a player. The data type tells us that this is of 'position' data, this value could be 1. For position data, x, y, and z are integers and can be values such as 1500, 20, -3000.

With the BitConverter, we can convert all our integers to byte arrays.

I found that the Unity DataStreamWriter class has a public bool WriteBytes(NativeArray<byte> value); method, so we can use that to send the bytes of data over the network.

Below is what I have so far.
https://github.com/valkyrienyanko/Prototype/blob/4762ead183cbb3c2d23dfcd4519318e55127ba59/Assets/Workspace/Scripts/Client.cs#L51-L66
I'm adding the byte arrays to a list to combine them all into one big byte array. Then I am passing that to the new NativeArray<byte>(bytes.ToArray(), Allocator.Persistent); and finally we write that data to the writer.

Note that I still have yet to see if this data makes it all in one piece on the server side.

Note that I am using the new Unity Transport Layer minimal client-server example. You can learn more about it here.

Receive

I found that the DataStreamReader class has a public void ReadBytes(NativeArray<byte> array); and it's asking for NativeArray<byte> array as a param, but my question is how do you know what your going to put in there if you're already receiving the array?

Right now all commands are loaded manually.
https://github.com/valkyrienyanko/Unity-Transport-Layer-Boilerplate/blob/2b0450020b623bd31b0f9852c84d6e652afe7432/Server/Assets/Scripts/Console.cs#L44-L52

If the commands were loaded dynamically somehow, this would save the time of having to manually type out each new command in the future.

Split the scene into 2 areas. Left area is for login, right is for registering.

I just found out that Telepathy exists, is this better than what I'm doing here?

1. Client connects to server successfully.
2. Client always disconnects from server after around 1 minute.

Right now the the server logs look like this. (ugly)

With the -logFile param I was able to move these logs to a log.txt file. Now all I have to do is format the logs and spit them out somewhere else. Or I could turn the server build into a graphical console interface.

Multiple Console Lines Per Console Message

Note that the console can currently only print 1 line that spans across the entire width of the screen. There is no functionality for printing more then one line to console yet. This would require line detection when the characters get off the screen.

Update* I figured out how to detect how many lines there need to be per console message. I also figured out how to size the message box height out according to the number of lines. The only problem is when 2 big messages are sent, they overlap.

The project build takes 2 minutes to build the resource folder on a empty Unity project. 2 minutes might not sound like a long time to you but when you're constantly rebuilding and testing, it is painfully long. I have no lead to why this is happening.

Here are links to other people having similar problems.

First Encounter

I'm trying to stop the server properly, just doing Driver.Dispose() does not seem to be the way. Note that it is not clear exactly when this error occurs, you may have to run start and stop several times before the error occurs.

Steps to Reproduce

1. Run server standalone.
2. Run stop in console
3. Run start in console
4. Error may appear if not then repeat steps 2 to 3.

Second Encounter

1. Run client. (Do not start server)
2. Load main menu scene.
3. Click on multiplayer.
4. Wait for it to timeout and go back to main menu scene.
5. Click on options scene. (Error appears)
6. Press Esc to go back (Error appears)
7. Click on options scene again (Error appears) etc..

Error

A Native Collection has not been disposed, resulting in a memory leak. Enable Full StackTraces to get more details.

Modular Commands

Right now all commands are in a switch statement in https://github.com/valkyrienyanko/Prototype/blob/master/Server/Assets/Scripts/Console.cs

It would be nice if they were spread across several files.

Take the following structure layout as an example.

Scripts/
+-- Server.cs
+-- Commands/
|   +-- Kick.cs
|   +-- Exit.cs

Each command should have a name, a usage showing the args syntax, and a description of how to use the command. The commands should be stored in a collection so we can type help commandname to get more info on how to use that command.

Steps to reproduce

1. Start server
2. Start client
3. Connect client to server
4. Observe client and server sending and receiving data every 1 seconds.
5. Kick the client from the server console.
6. Error gets spammed in console every 1 seconds until client times out.
