Welcome! This is a tutorial project to take your first steps in coherence, a framework for networking in Unity.
First Steps contains a collection of small scenes, each one demonstrating one or more features of coherence.
After downloading this Unity project, we suggest to open up the documentation as it's the perfect companion to explore the scenes included in the project.
- Basic syncing of variables
- Messaging with Network Commands (RPCs)
- Networking animation
- Networking complex hierarchies
- Spatial queries and optimisation
- Using persistent world data
Currently the project is on Unity 2021.3.27f1. You can open it with newer 2021.3 LTS patches or with 2022.3 LTS.
Opening the project with Unity 2022.1 or 2022.2 is discouraged, due to a Unity bug. The bug was fixed in 2022.3 LTS.
You can download the project using the Code button on this repo, as this project doesn't require LFS Support. Or fetch a release from the Releases page.
Full documentation for this project is available as part of the coherence documentation.
Check out the game on the coherence Cloud and either play the WebGL version of the game directly in your browser, or download one of the available desktop versions.
(note: we recommend Chrome, other browsers can have problems with Unity’s WebGL)
Feel free to open an issue right here on Github if you find anything that is not working in the First Steps project. Please include also any suggestion you might have on how to improve it. We appreciate all contributions!
