Getting Started

Project Setup

Each download is a complete Unity project.

1. Unzip the downloaded package and open the project folder with Unity 6000.3.18f1.
2. Create a Fusion 2 AppId following Creating a Fusion 2 AppId.
3. Open Tools > Fusion > Realtime Settings and paste the AppId into the App Id Fusion field of the selected PhotonAppSettings asset.

Running in Editor

The sample starts from the Menu scene.

1. Open the scene Assets/Scenes/Menu.unity and enter Play Mode.
2. Enter a nickname and a room name. An empty nickname field uses the generated Player name shown in the field.
3. In the Shared Authority project, press START to join the session or create it.
4. The Game scene loads with the pre-game screen. The master client presses Start game, the other players see Waiting for master.
5. The round lasts 180 seconds and ends earlier when every ship is out of lives. The winner screen shows the player with the highest score, remaining lives break a tie. After 4 seconds every client returns to the menu.

Building and Testing Multiplayer

The build settings list the Menu and Game scenes in this order. Keep both scenes in the list, StartMenu stops with an error when the Game scene is missing.

To test multiplayer, run a build next to the Unity Editor or start several builds on one machine. Enter the same room name on every client and join before the round starts, GameManager.StartGame closes the session to new players. Clients are only matched together when they use the same AppId, AppVersion and region.

In the Shared Authority project StartMenu starts the NetworkRunner with GameMode.Shared, every client joins the session and controls its own spaceship.
