SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

💡 This Skill includes references (resource) components.

What problem does it solve?

Normcore provides a robust framework to build real-time multiplayer experiences in Unity by bridging scenes to a shared datastore, managing ownership, rooms, and cross-client synchronization, including WebGL support.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Realtime core API that binds Unity objects to a shared datastore
  • RealtimeView / RealtimeComponent / RealtimeModel synchronization
  • Ownership, rooms, offline/online modes, and quickmatch for scalable multiplayer
  • WebGL compatibility and cross-platform client synchronization

Quick Start

To begin, install Normcore in your Unity project, attach Realtime and RealtimeView components to a scene object, define and attach a RealtimeModel, and instantiate networked prefabs. Refer to the references/ docs for ownership patterns, data synchronization, and WebGL considerations.

FAQPage Schema
How do I synchronize Unity scene objects across multiple clients in realtime?

To synchronize Unity scene objects across multiple clients, you bind them to a shared realtime datastore using RealtimeView and RealtimeComponent. This automatically coordinates state changes and data updates across all connected clients.

Can I build a WebGL multiplayer game in Unity using realtime datastore synchronization?

Yes, realtime datastore synchronization supports WebGL deployment in Unity. You can connect WebGL clients to shared rooms to coordinate multiplayer state and manage cross-platform synchronization.

How do I manage object ownership and room-based matchmaking in Unity multiplayer?

You manage object ownership and room-based matchmaking by utilizing the realtime core API. It provides built-in mechanisms for ownership control, room management, offline modes, and quickmatch to scale multiplayer experiences.

What is the best way to define custom networked data models for a Unity multiplayer game?

The best way to define custom networked data is by creating a RealtimeModel and attaching it to a RealtimeComponent on a networked prefab. This structure binds your Unity objects to the shared datastore for automatic synchronization.

Do I need the Normcore package to handle realtime state synchronization in Unity?

Yes, you need the Normcore package installed in your Unity project. It provides the required Realtime, RealtimeView, RealtimeComponent, and RealtimeModel classes needed to bridge scenes to the shared datastore.

What are the limitations of using a shared realtime datastore for Unity multiplayer?

Using a shared realtime datastore requires the Unity engine and the Normcore package. You must structure data using RealtimeModel definitions and manage ownership patterns carefully to avoid synchronization conflicts across clients.
