[UNET] OnPlayerConnected is never called
Hi. I have a script with only one method OnPlayerConnected attached to a game object in online scene but the method is never called and there is no Debug.Log output neither on server nor on client. Any ideas?
void OnPlayerConnected(NetworkPlayer player)
{
Debug.Log("Player " + playerCount + " connected from " + player.ipAddress + ":" + player.port);
}
Yes, it is NetworkBehaviour. Does it matter? NetworkBehaviour derives from $$anonymous$$onoBehaviour.
As seanr said, its not going to be called on UNET. What I generally do, is have a class that controls all the network messages (simple commands and rpc, connections and disconnections), which, in server is always scanning the NetworkManager.numPlayers; This way, if someone connects or disconnects the number of players will change and you can decide what to do...
using UnityEngine;
using System.Collections;
using UnityEngine.Networking;
public class NetworkMSG : NetworkBehaviour {
NetworkManager NetMngr;
NetworkClient meClient;
public int connectedPlayers=0;
void Start(){
NetMngr = GameObject.Find ("NetworkManager").GetComponent<NetworkManager> ();
if (isServer) {
NetworkServer.RegisterHandler (MsgType.Highest + 2, OnMessageRX); // if you are a server, subscribe to the message handler
GameObject.FindGameObjectWithTag ("Player").GetComponent<NetPlayerController> ().playerNum = 1;
GameObject.FindGameObjectWithTag ("Player").GetComponent<NetPlayerController> ().playerRegistered = true;
}
if(isClient){
meClient = NetMngr.client; // if you are client save your network client (to send messages to server through the handler)
}
}
//CLIENT SCRIPTS
[ClientRpc]
void RPCClient(string Garden)
{
if (!isClient)
return;
}
//Client send command to server
public void ClientSendTree(string treeData){
if (!isClient)
return;
TreeMessage Tmessage= new TreeMessage();
Tmessage.tree = treeData;
//if (!isServer) {
meClient.Send (MsgType.Highest + 2, Tmessage);
Debug.Log ("Just registred this message on network client");
//}
}
//SERVER SCRIPTS
public void Update(){
if (!isServer)
return;
if (NetMngr.numPlayers != connectedPlayers) { //detect player connection
if (NetMngr.numPlayers < 2) {
connectedPlayers = NetMngr.numPlayers;
}
if(NetMngr.numPlayers >connectedPlayers){
Debug.Log ("Player connected");
StartCoroutine(PlayerConnected (3));//wait five seconds before sending garden
connectedPlayers = NetMngr.numPlayers;
}
Debug.Log ("NetworkMSG: Players connected to host= "+(connectedPlayers-1).ToString());
RegisterClients();
}
}
IEnumerator PlayerConnected(float waitTime){
yield return new WaitForSeconds(waitTime);
Debug.Log ("NetworkMSG: Waited for client to connect, to send garden info for: " + waitTime);
TransmitGarden ();
}
public void Reset(){
if (!isServer)
return;
}
void OnMessageRX(NetworkMessage netmsg){ //receive from user
Debug.Log ("Message Received");
if (!isServer)
return;
TreeMessage msg = netmsg.ReadMessage<TreeMessage> ();//get message
}
}
public class TreeMessage : MessageBase
{
public string tree; // in the format zntm (zone, numberOfTree, TreeType, Method)
}
This is the majority of what you would use for a network communication protocol for your basic game, (player connect, client setup, event handler, network messages, RCP calls, etc) ... Hope it is of some use to anyone starting on this. ( I have just started myself, but this code I wrote has worked so far, in various different games I made).
OnPlayerConnected is from the legacy network API, not UNET.
How can i find out if a player connected to the server using UNET?
The way I did it was I made a class where the player sends a command to change a Boolean on another class. I then just check if the Boolean has been set to true. I couldnt find any other way but for my needs it works 100% of the time. Hope this helps!
Well, i can also count the players using Find GameObjects by Tag "Player" to know if the count has changed. But i want UNET to do it for me.Its really buggy. Photon is light years better than UNET for now.
How great that it is till there in documentation. Classic Unity.
