Thank you for providing this fantastic tutorial free for all. I have been following this video step by step and learned more than I expected. Awesome work! As nothing is bug free, I found a few in this project.

[@junzhao5709]

Two bugs were found with your FinalProject. 1st: When I set the minPlayersToStart to 2, the game will start correctly once the 2nd player joins. However, the 3rd player will be frozen with the game start UI "Waiting for -1 more to join...". And the TeamPlayerCounter component for all clients has 0 for both BlueTeamPlayer and the RedTeamPlayer. (But the 3rd player won't have this problem if he joins before GameStartTick) 2nd: Only happens if the host is a build not the editor. If there are more than one player. The host's abilities UI for Q and W will not be on cooldown correctly. Also, the host's abilities cooldown UI will be on cooldown if the 2nd or 3rd player casts a spell. This only affects the UIs, the internal cooldown is correct for the host or clients. Another bug is, the "var skillShotAbility = ecb.Instantiate(skillShot.AbilityPrefab);" will be excuted on both the client and the host if the client casted a SkillShot. Similiar with the 2nd issue.

[@junzhao5709]

Solution for the 1st bug: In the "ServerProcessGameEntryRequestSystem", change "if (playerRemainingToStart

[@junzhao5709]

Solution for the 2nd bug: In "AbilityCooldownUISystem.OnUpdate()", add "WithAll()" at the end of the first foreach query. Solution for the 3rd bug: In "BeginSkillShotSystem.OnUpdate()", find the 2nd foreach loop which instantiate the skillShot entity. Add "GhostOwnerIsLocal" inside the "WithAll".

Supposing I wanted to create 4 teams or 3 players, that wouldn't be too hard to do would it? @TurboMakesGames

[@TurboMakesGames]

Thank you so much for the support 😀 4 teams of 3 players would be pretty easy - you'd just need to expand your "team" enum to have more teams, change your team management to properly distribute the players across all the teams, spawn them in the correct place, and fix some of the hacky things you can do with 2 teams (i.e. if Red team loses, that means Blue team wins).

I was stuck for a while at the step of implementing ClickToMove. The step that wasn't called out in the video was attaching the MainCameraAuthoring component to the CameraEntity so the main camera can be located at the ray tracing step. To do this: - Open the MobaEntities subscene - Select the CameraEntity - Attack the Main Camera Authoring component - Re-open the main MobaScene

[@christinanorman4144]

Another tip is ensure in the Console Window that you have Error Pause disabled as there is a physics error which is fixed late in the tutorial. It will make testing iteration faster! The fix is discussed at 2:37:00 in the video.

Hi ! I don't know if there has been a follow up on the Entity destruction process but setting the scale to 0f on the Entity transform when it has the DestroyEntityTag seems to me like a clean way to make it properly disappear on screen while waiting for it to be removed on the client. Also many many thanks for all of your work teaching us the skills required to make the games we dreamed of!

[@TurboMakesGames]

Thank you so much for the support!! I did see someone in our Discord mention that they have a setup where they basically just disable the visuals and enable a timer, if that timer is enabled it will exclude them from other in game systems, then the server cleans them up. If the timer expires before the entity gets cleaned up, it will be reinitialized on the client. Still a bit complex, but it seems to work well for them. Setting the scale to 0f seems like a good solution too!

Amazing tutorial! Incredible work. I did notice an issue when dropping the Simulation Tick Rate and Network Tick Rate's both down to 15.

Any thoughts on how to fix this?

@@TurboMakesGames I don't know if I did something wrong, but I have a new error after testing around 4:50:00 "The ghost collection contains a ghost which does not have a valid prefab on the client! Ghost: 'PrespawnSceneList'" Any ideas?

[@DevGods]

I have a question about security. Shouldn't the owner tag be a ghost component? I'm thinking since that code runs client side, players can mark any entity with it. But if its server authoritative then they just know they own it. Also was there a specific reason why components like the owner tag isn't an enabled component instead of dynamically added? I guess I would just want to know if its a better option to reduce cache misses since you won't change the archetype.

[@TurboMakesGames]

Good question and smart that you are considering security for this. I get your point and I do see how that could be a potential vulnerability. With a ghost component, by default it is going to be synched across the network, and we'd only want the local client to be tagged with this component for their player and not have that added to all players. We could maybe use some of the attributes you can set on the ghost component to only sync it to the local player, but not sure if that just gets us back to the same situation we were in first. Regarding the enableable component, there already is an enableable component to mark an entity as owned by the player. The reason I did a separate tag component is because you cannot call GetSingleton/GetSingletonEntity methods using an enableable component type. Also, multiple entities can be marked as owned by a player, so this specifies that this is the champion owned by the player. Hope that helps give some insight into my thinking!

[@DevGods]

@@TurboMakesGames thanks!

[@saito853]

The reason for not using IL2CPP (yet) is because the build time can get pretty long. During development you usually have multiple iterations of the game to either fix minor bugs and errors or tweak different system changes. It's much better to just not enable IL2CPP until you actually build a production ready version.

[@horeaper]

There is a bug in code if you try to speed up build time (like mono, disable burst, etc). I posted a comment on how to fix that, but looks like it was eaten by youtube. Plan to re-post a while later.

[@ashleycanning1450]

Its not the best idea to do this because if you run into any IL2CPP specific issues then it will be hard to narrow them down

[@joe72110]

Hello, thank you so much for this Tutorial, it has clarified so many things for me. One question though: How would you implement a single player option? I tried to just not create the Server and client world, and stay in the default world, but then a lot of the logic that is currently server specific, breaks in that case. I thought of two alternatives (not tested yet): 1- Add conditions in the code to check if we are in the default world, but I think that would be very error prone. 2- Create a client server session on the same machine and not accept more than one client. But probably that would add unnecessary latency to the game?

[@СергейВоронин-т2б]

Hello. Thank you very much for this lesson. I follow your lesson and have reached the point where damage from AOE is added to the buffer. And sometimes I add damage 2 times per use of the ability. I don’t know if you had this problem and whether it will be solved later in the lesson. If yes, then there are no questions, I will see it in the video. If not, please tell me what could be the matter. I double-checked it several times, there is no difference between what you did and what I did.

[@Studio-fd5cc]

I'm having the same issue. Did you figure it out?

[@aythamicabrera9387]

Thanks for the video!! Very much appreciated. I have a question regarding your IInputComponentData on around 1:31:00. According to the documentation, input under a struct that inherits from that interface gets sent automatically to the server. Does it really need to be marked as [GhostComponent]?

[@noahwinslow3252]

Not sure if this is a dumb question, but is there any reason to avoid putting component structs in the same file as their related authoring scripts? For instance, in my mind it would make sense to have the `HitPointsAuthoring` file contain not only the Authoring MonoBehaviour but also to have the MaxHitPoints and CurrentHitPoints Component Data structs co-located. If there is a reason to have them in different files, then I think I would want to co-locate them in the same folder so that the general architecture becomes easier to navigate.

[@TurboMakesGames]

Nope, no issues at all with that approach! Some people go as far as to put some simple systems in the same script as data components and authoring scripts. The only limitation is that because authoring scripts are MonoBehaviours, they need to match the name of the file they are in - so only 1 authoring script per file max. Ultimately it is just personal preference on this though

[@horeaper]

Here are some bugs I found while following this tutorial, posted in replys: (Wrote a lengthy comment before, but it was eaten by youtube. I think it's because the Unity forum link I added...)

[@horeaper]

Around 1:22:22, when building the player for the first time. I disabled burst to speed up build time, also checked "Development Build" to enable the buildin debug console, and build as Mono, not IL2CPP. All combined slow things down quite a bit. After that when running the build, join as client only (Editor as host), the following error message appears in the build player: "The ghost collection contains a ghost which does not have a valid prefab on the client" And the client player was forcefully disconnected. Thus unable to do any testing. After a google, a Unity staff in forum pointed this is mostly caused by "going in-game on the client before the prefab has been loaded". I believe this is surfaced by those "slow down configs" mentioned above. So I made the following changes: 1. Create a empty IComponentData named InsideSceneTag, and the corresponding InsideSceneAuthoring. 2. Add InsideSceneAuthoring onto the GameObject in MobaScene's sub scene. I put it in GameStartProperties. 3. Add state.RequireForUpdate() to ClientRequestGameEntrySystem. 4. Build, run, and everything is fine now.

[@horeaper]

About the NetCodeConfig.Global returning null, it happens all the time in my editor, and I wasn't able to fix it with closing/reloading sub scene. A Unity staff in forum said they acknowledged this problem and this was fixed in 1.3 (Too many changes to land in 1.2). Right now a temporary fix would be: 1. Write a editor only static method with [InitializeOnLoadMethod] attribute. 2. In the method's body write: PlayerSettings.GetPreloadedAssets().OfType(); And make sure NetcodeConfig asset is inside Project Settings->Player->Preload Assets (It should be added automatically)

[@horeaper]

Around 2:47:00, when testing AoE damage to enemy tower, the champion moves too slow and I don't want to wait, so I change the player's move speed to 35 (10x than before). Then I noticed when start the game (as host, in editor), champion is not standing in where he's suppose to be. Took me some time to trace it: InitializeLocalChampionSystem executed after ChampionMoveSystem. So when the move system executes the first time, ChampionMoveTargetPosition has not been initialized. Thus caused the champion to move towards (0,1,0) for 1 frame. When move speed is 3.5, it's not very obvious. But with 35, it is VERY obvious. Haven't found a good (not ugly) way to fix it though (Set ChampionMoveTargetPosition when instantiating the champion does nothing). Not a big problem, and it was partially fixed by GamePlayingTag later on (still going to happen when respawning) so I let it go.

[@horeaper]

When making the health bar, I noticed the value goes up and down for a fraction of a second. It is probably because I set the network latency in PlayMode Tools to 132ms to simulate a bad network. But later in the tutorial it is also visible in the video. So I added a IsFirstTimeFullyPredictingTick check inside ApplyDamageSystem, and everything works fine now.

[@horeaper]

That's all! Great tutorial, although things related to PredictedSimulationSystemGroup got me brain wrapped for quite a while (I came from a Netcode for GameObject background which doesn't have prediction right now). That part (when making Aoe ability input and damage) can need a more detailed explanation of how code/logic runs in the prediction system, to save some brain cells.

[@epitaque7108]

Thanks for this tutorial, it's really great. I'm surprised at the lack of comments about issues with NFE 1.2 preview, I've run into a few: 1) a ghost collection not containing prefab error when running the server in the Unity editor and the client in a build (haven't found a fix, but can work around this by running the server in the build) and 2) NetCodeConfig.Global being null when running in the editor (An employee posted an editor script fix in a unity forum thread) Anyway, I have a question: have you thought of a better way to delete entities? Or at least get rid of the flickering (seen around 2:28:30)? (Client is moving the aoe sphere offscreen and server is overwriting that movement with ghost transform data, I believe) Edit: I see @horeaper posted some of the issues he ran into, that thread is really helpful, I've run into the first 3 things he mentioned!

[@noahwinslow3252]

Tobias in your recent HotPath (ep 13 I think) mentioned that it could be good to do a permanent allocation of your ECB, is there any place in this tutorial where that would be a good idea? From my understanding that would be better for situations in which the systems are long lived rather than the "initialize" situations ones, does that sound about right?

[@AaronAsherRandall]

Holy wow you are a legend man! Just curious, does this use Unity’s NavMesh system?

[@TurboMakesGames]

Nope, this just uses a simple node to node path for the minions and essentially random motion for the AI champions. Wanted to keep that part simple to focus on the ECS/Netcode aspects. The Agents Navigation asset on the asset store is a great example of an ECS based system that uses Unity's NavMesh - I have some videos on it if you want to check it out

[@AaronAsherRandall]

@@TurboMakesGames oh cool! Thanks for the info! I basically use NavMesh in all of my Unity projects now. It’s probably my favorite thing about Unity. Does it fair pretty well in a networked Netcode for Entities environment? I’m not even sure how you would sync up say the baked NavMesh and the various NavMesh agents for the different players / clients.

[@BrianSterling-ki7kx]

Any thoughts on how you would need to implement the thin clients to use the aoe ability when they hit that timer? I've been trying something in a project of mine that has a similar setup but it's not working. I'm setting an InputEvent in my IInputComponentData GhostField, but when I inspect the Input Buffer Data on the entity in the inspector it has a size of 0. I'm guessing that Thin clients can't use InputData components?

[@TurboMakesGames]

Make sure in the ThinClientEntrySystem you are adding an AbilityInput component and an InputBufferData> buffer to the thinClientDummy. That *should* be all that is required for thin client ability input. Hope this helps get it working!

[@BrianSterling-ki7kx]

@@TurboMakesGames I had those, turns out in my ThinClientInputSystem if I don't create a new AbilityInput component before the input timer expires, the next frame the inputevent was still "Set", oddly though this would mean that every frame "WasPressedThisFrame" was true, but yet when inspecting the InputBuffer in the inspector it was not and my system that queries the InputData was not seeing it. The aspect that returned ShouldAttack was always true as well which was confusing. Anyways, figured it out, thanks for the help.

How does the project know which "PhysicsCategoryNames" asset to use? I don't see a setting under physics or entities.

[@TurboMakesGames]

Good question - I've never really had a need to use multiple Physics Category Name assets. I just tested and I have multiple in the project and in the Physics Shape authoring component, a warning is shown in the editor stating that multiple Physics Category Name assets are present - it appears to be using the most recently created asset. But ultimately it is just a label to help with development and doesn't affect behavior of the game.

[@hakanviajando]

@@TurboMakesGames We use these categories in collisionFilter, so how does it not affect behaviour? Or do you mean the filter is always the bitmask, and this asset is only mapping a label to each bit? and that's why it doesn't matter?

[@TurboMakesGames]

@@hakanviajando Yes, that the filter is a bitmask - so of course it could lead to some unexpected behavior if you created a 2nd asset part way through development that directly conflicts with the 1st asset and you didn't go back to change your original entities.

I was having an issue when using an AOE skill on another player, sometimes the player wouldn't actually take any damage and looked like it was phasing out (going dimmer). I'll see if I can replicate it again, but that was pretty weird.

[@NewbNinjas]

Might have been discussed in the project already, but does this cover the idea of spinning up game instances to handle more than 10 players in a queue waiting to play. Say I have 1000 people wanting to play, but we need to spin up instances of the game server to handle multiple instances of the server running? If not, how would we go about tackling that using Unity Netcode and the Multiplayer services provided by Unity.

[@TurboMakesGames]

This video does not cover that. Something like that is more along the lines of integrating with other services such as Unity Lobby to manage all this. With these UGS services, once a match is found and players are connected, they all communicate the same way show in this tutorial. There are some other good tutorials regarding these services if you poke around a bit. Hope that helps get you going in the right direction!
