A collection of one-liner extension methods to make your DR2 life easier.
To start using the example, clone the repo & place it in your client project.
- Create an empty game object.
- Add a
UnityClientto it as you would following the docs - Add the
ExampleMonoBehaviourscript to the same gameobject. SendExampleMEssagewill be called onUpdate. You're done!
IMessage serves as a supplementary interface to the IDarkRiftSerializable to eliminate boilerplate code that you might have to otherwise write or keep track of. It forces every message to contain a ushort Tag, that is then fetched by the extension methods to do the work for you.
It is recommended to follow the example by having a list of tags, contained within an Enum that inherits ushort, to minimize the chances of human error.
This is a stripped down version of some production code I use, to keep things simple.
It is fully possible to further expand them by improving your IMessage interface to further supplement DarkRift2's IDarkRiftSerializable and adjust the Exstension Methods accordingly.
If you're a beginner however, these one-liners should get you started just fine.
