Networked Event Caller

Description

Allows you to call events/methods over the network with ease and support for sending parameters over the network.

Installation

Use the VCC Listing to install the package via the VPM.

How to use

Scene Setup

1. Add the NetworkManager component to a GameObject. It is recommended that this is put into root of the scene. And must be only one in the scene.
2. On NetworkManager set the amount of NetworkedEventCallers you wish to generate and press "Setup NetworkManager". This number should be at least the max occupancy of your instance * 2 + 2. This will generate the NetworkedEventCaller instances and set them up.

Your code setup

1. Inherit from NetworkInterface on the class you wish to call and receive events/methods on.

2. Use SendMethodNetworked to send a method/event over the network. The parameters you send must match 1:1 in type and order to the parameters of the method/event you are calling. Otherwise this will crash the UdonBehaviour.

Examples

Sending a method/event

    public override void Interact()
    {
        SendMethodNetworked(nameof(CoolMethod), SyncTarget.All, Time.time, new DataToken(transform.position), new DataToken(transform.rotation), new DataToken(Networking.LocalPlayer));
    }

Sending method to another UdonBehaviour

    public override void Interact()
    {
        otherBehaviour.SendMethodNetworked(nameof(OtherBehaviourClass.CoolMethod), SyncTarget.All, Time.time, new DataToken(transform.position), new DataToken(transform.rotation), new DataToken(Networking.LocalPlayer));
    }

To receive we can declare regular C#/U# method and add [NetworkedMethod] to mark it as networked.

    [NetworkedMethod]
    public void CoolMethod(float time, Vector3 position, Quaternion rotation, VRCPlayerApi player)
    {
        Debug.Log($"{time} - {position} - {rotation} - {player.displayName}");
    }
