To answer your question about best practices, well yes, there are. Like for your case, since you have multiple animations (and each animation could be different in size) so the best practice would be to select the Origin at (let's say) on the Head of the player and select 'For whole animation', and do that for each Animations.

Note: For that above, you have to select "For whole animation" and not the same "For all animations". That way, each change in animation would have the player's "Head" aligned (since that's a common/stable part of the character, unless you decide to behead him).

What I would do is:

Before game starts, spend around 1 second, to (automatically) survey the terrain and store 'angle' data in an array. That way, all the CPU-consuming tasks (collision-checking for angle detection) will be done beforehand and not in real-time.

For example: Use the Ray-casting method by — (above), and have it run along the terrain rapidly (use object time-scale if possible), and as it moves, every X distance, it checks the angle and stores in an array.

Then, when the player uses the terrain, based on the X location, it uses the array data to set angle.

Just a thought. What do you think?

I believe the object Sync would only sync what you've asked it to. For example: Position?

Mirror is different from Position and Angle. You'll have to do it using another event/action.

[Host]

[Keyboard] On Space Bar: [Multiplayer] Send message to Multiplayer.PeerID, tag: "m", message: "yes"

[Peer]

[Multiplayer] On message "m": if Multiplayer.message = "yes", Sprite: Set Mirror, else: Not Mirror

So there are several ways, you simply need to let Construct know how to identify which one you want.

The perfect way would be through its UID (Unique ID), which is different even for copied texts (or sprites). You can find it on the left bar.

All you need to do is: Go to the text object's condition -> Pick by UID, and then make a sub-event for its action, e.g.: 'Set Text: Hey I'm so unique!'

But 'picking' could be done through many ways, e.g:

1) its opacity

2) its position (nearest to something?)

3) its instance variable

4) its Z level, top/bottom

5) ..or any expression or evaluation you can think to differentiate them*

* Go to System: Pick object by: (here you can see many options, most relevant for you is Pick by Comparison).

Hi, I used to use Multiplayer plugin for my two-player game, where the ball (Physics) movements were very smooth and accurate on both ends, only slight lag-delay which was also fine and workable.

Now I use Photon (implemented on the same game mechanics) and since it doesn't Sync an object automatically, getting every tick positions (or even every 0.03, etc) to manually sync the ball, causes a LOT of stop-motion effects.

I tried 'lerp' but it also doesn't quite make it look smooth.

I also tried taking velocityX, velocityY with ball.X, ball.Y but for some reason, it doesn't refresh X,Y anymore (or not consistently) when velocities are given?

I want to know how does Multiplayer Sync work on Physics objects? I want to re-create that mechanics through Photon.

Assume a Volleyball game where ball has collisions and projectile motions. Thanks
