# Features
|
||||
|
||||
{% hint style="warning" %}
|
||||
For a more exact feature comparison of various networking solutions please see this [comparison chart](https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1Bj5uLdnxZYlJykBg3Qd9BNOtvE8sp1ZQ4EgX1sI0RFA/).
|
||||
{% endhint %}
|
||||
|
||||
Performance and reliability are very important to us, but so is including great features to make your experience easier, and better. The last thing we want to do is create limitations; we support all features Mirror does, and then some.
|
||||
|
||||
Below is a comparison of unique and enhanced features, with more to come.
|
||||
|
||||
## Features unique to Fish-Networking
|
||||
|
||||
> **Update Stability**
|
||||
>
|
||||
> Other solutions do not guarantee that their API will not change between releases, making it difficult and dangerous to update for fixes or features. Fish-Networking prides itself on its [No-Break Promise](../../../#no-break-promise), ensuring updates do not require alteration of user code, keeping you on-top with the best to offer.
|
||||
|
||||
> **Built-in Addressables Support**
|
||||
>
|
||||
> Unlike other networking solutions, Fish-Networking has addressables support included within core features. Addressable scenes are easily implemented with our network SceneManager, and addressable prefabs are supported as well.
|
||||
|
||||
> **Network Balancing**
|
||||
>
|
||||
> NetworkManagers are the center of your network environment. They contain other managers, and handle communications between the client and server. Fish-Networking allows an infinite number of NetworkManagers, allowing clients at once to connect to multiple different servers, to have each handle certain tasks or worlds. Various NetworkManagers may also be used to fit different game modes, transports, platforms, and a number of other tasks.
|
||||
|
||||
> **Local Remote Calls**
|
||||
>
|
||||
> Fish-Networking allows remote calls to run not only on their intended destination, but also on the caller as well. Typically, you would have to copy logic into multiple methods to accomplish such a task, but Fish-Networking allows it to be done in one method. This drastically reduces potential errors in code, lines of code, and improves ease of use.
|
||||
|
||||
> **Multi-purpose Remote Calls**
|
||||
>
|
||||
> Target and Observers remote calls can be used interchangeable, in the same method. This allows you to use a single method to send data to one client or multiple clients. Like _**Local Remote Calls**_, this creates a more reliable code-base and improves the user experience.
|
||||
|
||||
> **Buffered Remote Calls**
|
||||
>
|
||||
> Often the last value of a remote call must be sent to newly joined clients. Fish-Networking is one of few solutions that offer this ability.
|
||||
|
||||
> **Client-side Prediction**
|
||||
>
|
||||
> Client-side prediction primarily focuses on ensuring players in your game cannot cheat a variety of movement types. This feature is an absolute must for any competitive game.
|
||||
>
|
||||
> Fish-Networking is the only free solution to provide built-in client-side prediction with only a few lines of code. Also, included are a variety of components for desynchronization smoothing, and rigidbody prediction.
|
||||
|
||||
> **Lag Compensation (pro feature)**
|
||||
>
|
||||
> Another very important feature for precision-based gaming is lag compensation. This is the act of rolling back colliders in time to where a client had seen them; this ensures accurate hit registration. This technique is applicable to several genre types but is most commonly seen in shooter games.
|
||||
|
||||
> **Automatic Code Stripping (pro feature)**
|
||||
>
|
||||
> Code stripping helps protect your game server by removing sensitive logic that the player should not be aware of.
|
||||
|
||||
> **Network Level of Detail (pro feature)**
|
||||
>
|
||||
> Optimize your game's networking footprint with the intelligent LOD system. This feature scales the frequency of data synchronization based on an object's distance from the player. By throttling updates for distant entities while maintaining high-fidelity precision for nearby interactions, you can significantly reduce server bandwidth and improve client-side CPU performance without sacrificing gameplay quality.
|
||||
|
||||
> **Large Packet Handling**
|
||||
>
|
||||
> In some scenarios you may need to send large amounts of data either to the client or server. Tests show Fish-Networking was able to effectively send anywhere from a few, to a few hundred megabytes over the network. Other solutions such as Mirror and even Fusion throw errors on the same job.
|
||||
|
||||
> **Reliable Order of Operations**
|
||||
>
|
||||
> Race conditions are possibly the worst kind of problems to solve, and it's especially frustrating when those race conditions are caused by someone else's software. Competitors such as Mirror have shown to have a variety of race conditions, such as networked objects referencing one-another before they actually exist.
|
||||
>
|
||||
> Fish-Networking ensures references cannot go missing, and that the reliability of operations and callbacks are consistent in all scenarios.
|
||||
|
||||
> **Child Network Components**
|
||||
>
|
||||
> Child Network Components allow for easier design and better code organization by using components such as Network Objects or Network Behaviours on child objects. Mirror for example requires all networked components to be placed on the root object, which could quickly clutter your work flow.
|
||||
|
||||
> **Custom SyncTypes**
|
||||
>
|
||||
> Custom SyncTypes allow you to create logic on how something may be updated over the network. For example: SyncVars, SyncList, SyncDictionaries are all custom SyncTypes included within Fish-Networking. If you would prefer a more hands-on/tailored experience you may create your own Custom SyncType using the exposed framework.
|
||||
|
||||
> **Dual Projects**
|
||||
>
|
||||
> Fish-Networking has limited support for dual projects. We recommend using a single project and utilize server defines along with our **automatic code stripping** feature.
|
||||
|
||||
> **Single, Additive, Stacked Scene Management**
|
||||
>
|
||||
> Scene management is essential for offline and online games. While other solutions such as Mirror, Fusion, and Netcode are limited to basic single scene management out of the box, Fish-Networking provides built-in logic to control seperation of clients through single, additive, and even stacked scenes. This is a powerful tool for world streaming, dungeon instances, lobbys and more.
|
||||
|
||||
> **Automatic Prefab Detection**
|
||||
>
|
||||
> Networking solutions such as Mirror require you to specify and organize networked object prefabs. This is a time consuming task which often requires dragging every prefab into a collection, or looking up prefabs by string before you may spawn them over the network. Fish-Networking strongly believes in ease-of-use, and part of that is having your networked prefabs automatically detected by our framework. Changes made to networked objects are automatically known and configured by Fish-Networking without requiring additional steps form the user.
|
||||
|
||||
> **Built-in, or Custom Object Pool**
|
||||
>
|
||||
> Included is the ability to automatically reset and pool network objects. Objects can be set to pool at runtime, or be pre-configured on the NetworkObject. Pooled objects automatically have their network values reset, including all SyncTypes on the object.
|
||||
>
|
||||
> Fish-Networking comes with a basic object pool but fully supports any object pool of your choice.
|
||||
|
||||
> **Zero Hotpath Allocations**
|
||||
>
|
||||
> Allocations can massively affect both server and client performance. While Mirror and Netcode allocate garbage regularly, Fish-Networking does not, ensuring better scalability and all-around performance.
|
||||
|
||||
> **Offline Networked Objects**
|
||||
>
|
||||
> In some instances an object may need to only exist locally, rather than over the network, and sometimes both. Fish-Networking allows users to default objects to being local only so that the objects network functionality is unused. In addition, these objects are intelligently synchronized over the network when the user shows such intent.
|
||||
|
||||
## Features which do more in Fish-Networking
|
||||
|
||||
> **Serializables**
|
||||
>
|
||||
> Fish-Networking supports more object types to be serialized than any other free solution. Dictionaries, scriptable objects, nullables and more can be automatically serialized in Fish-Networking. Solutions which have existed longer, such as Mirror, still require manual serialization of many types which Fish-Networking handles automatically.
|
||||
|
||||
> **Area of Interest System**
|
||||
>
|
||||
> Area of interest, often called AOI, controls which clients receive what information. AOI not only can prevent cheating by disallowing information clients get, but also drastically improve bandwidth and performance of the server by not sending unnecessary information to clients. Both Fish-Networking and Mirror support AOI, however in Mirror you may only use one AOI system at a time. For example, you can separate clients by scenes in Mirror, but you cannot also separate them by distance at the same time. In result if you have a larger world players will see each other at all times. Fish-Networking not only streamlines setting up the AOI system but allows multiple conditions to run at once, which would resolve the just mentioned Mirror problem. Fish-Networking's AOI system can also be easily customized with your own logic.
|
||||
|
||||
> **Reliable and Unreliable Remote Calls**
|
||||
>
|
||||
> Several networking solutions support reliable and unreliable remote calls, but Fish-Networking simplifies the process for users. In Mirror if you wish to have a remote call which can send both reliable and unreliable you must duplicate your logic into multiple methods, one for reliable and one for unreliable. Fish-Networking again saves on lines of code and risk of error by allowing a single remote call method to run both reliably and unreliably. You can change the reliability effortlessly at runtime as well.
|
||||
|
||||
> **SyncType Flexibility**
|
||||
>
|
||||
> [SyncTypes](../../../guides/features/network-communication/synchronizing/) are another very common feature found in just about every high level library. However, very few solutions offer flexibility on how SyncTypes can be configured. Mirror for example can only send SyncTypes reliably, cannot adjust the interval per SyncType, has limited callbacks, and cannot control who receives the values of each SyncType. Fish-Networking on the other hand may send reliable or unreliable with eventual consistency. SyncType intervals can be different for each SyncType. Callbacks can occur on both the server and client. Each SyncType can be specified to go to only the owner, or all clients.
|
||||
|
||||
> **Tick Based**
|
||||
>
|
||||
> Tick based timings allow accurate simulation for client-side prediction, smooth transform replication, and a lot more. Fish-Networking has a strong and efficient tick based core to provide a smoother experience for both the developer and their players. Older networking solutions such as Mirror are not tick based, which results in sloppy simulations as well the inability to create a proper client-side prediction system.
|
||||
|
||||
> **Broadcasts and Messages**
|
||||
>
|
||||
> Fish-Networking supports broadcasts, interchangeably called messages. Broadcasts and messages are data which can be sent over the network without requiring a networked object receiver. These are useful for objects which you don't want networked but would still like to be able to communicate with, such as a door in your scene. Fish-Networking enhances this communication type by allowing multiple objects to utilize the same message. For example, in Fish-Networking all your scene doors could listen to the same message for updates; Mirror on the other hand only one door could listen to updates while you would have to create additional broadcast or message types for every single added door.
|
||||
|
||||
> **Original**
|
||||
>
|
||||
> Mirror, Netcode, and several other networking solutions are based off from previous works, some which are deprecated. Fish-Networking is made original from the ground up, with no prior solution's limitations to bog it down.
|
||||
|
||||
> **Anti-Singleton Design**
|
||||
>
|
||||
> Most networking solutions, even newer ones such as Netcode, use a singleton design pattern. Fish-Networking does not utilize singleton classes for it's managers, but still provides an easy way to access networking data from anywhere.
|
||||
|
||||
> **XML Documentation**
|
||||
>
|
||||
> An often unconsidered part of any project are the XML comments for it's API. Netcode, Mirror, and even Unity's official API have several parts which are not fully commented internally nor through the XML. Fish-Networking provides complete XML coverage with well thought-out descriptions to make developing easier without constantly have to jump through the source code or visit external sources.

# Performance
|
||||
|
||||
Prior to Fish-Networking we developed assets for other solutions, such as Mirror Networking. These assets have proven to perform 4 times faster, and use little as 13% the bandwidth of Mirror's internal components. Unfortunately, third party assets can only go so far. This is strongly in part why Fish-Networking was made.
|
||||
|
||||
Fish-Networking has been designed with performance and bandwidth in mind. Features are regularly benchmarked for client and server performance, as well bandwidth consumption; these metrics are important while deploying. Better performance allows your project to run on cheaper hardware, and enables a higher concurrent user count. By using less bandwidth Fish-Networking reduces your server bills.

**Networked Objects (moving)**
|
||||
|
||||
In most games moving objects will contribute the majority of used bandwidth. Fish-Networking's bandwidth consumption competes aggressively against modern paid solutions, and does better than any other free solution.
|
||||
|
||||
**Remote Procedure Calls**
|
||||
|
||||
Remote procedure calls, shortened to RPCs, are commonly placed second in bandwidth consumption. RPCs are used to communicate between the server and client. Fish-Networking uses only two bytes per RPC, while other free solutions use a minimum of 23 bytes.
|
||||
|
||||
## CPU <a href="#server-and-host" id="server-and-host"></a>
|
||||
|
||||
Another very important aspect is how well the networking solution scales. A better scaling solution ensures it will run on less expensive hardware, and get you closer to your MMO goals.
|
||||
|
||||
#### Network Object Count (idle)
|
||||
|
||||
It's not uncommon for frameworks to lose performance as more networked objects are spawned. Fish-Networking retains nearly 100% of it's performance regardless of how many objects are spawned.
|
||||
|
||||
#### Concurrent Users
|
||||
|
||||
Fish-Networking retains a large amount of performance with hundreds of users updating every tick. Other networking solutions have shown to slow down drastically as more concurrent users join the server.
|
||||
|
||||
**Client Experience**
|
||||
|
||||
With more objects, users, or activity even clients can be affected by a poorly designed networking solution. Fish-Networking has scored roughly 70% more frames per second on clients than other free solutions, such as Mirror.

Everything looks good on paper but dedicated benchmarks can show you what to

really expect.

# Benchmark Setup
|
||||
|
||||
## **Setup**
|
||||
|
||||
* New scene with Camera and directional light.
|
||||
* 1 object per player connection.
|
||||
* Object moves and rotates randomly.
|
||||
* Object has a client authoritative NetworkTransform with 100ms send rate.
|
||||
* Object sends two ServerRPCs a second.
|
||||
* Server sends an ObserverRPC for every ServerRPC it receives.
|
||||
* Every client is it's own executable.
|
||||
* Server tick rate is set to 10 (every 100ms).
|
||||
|
||||
## Gathering results
|
||||
|
||||
Performance results are determined by setting a server at it's highest possible frame rate and comparing frame time as more variables or clients are introduced.
|
||||
|
||||
Bandwidth results are discovered by using tools which come with the operating system, and averaging bandwidth per second.
|
||||
|
||||
## Scripts
|
||||
|
||||
These are the scripts created specifically to benchmark and ensure test are performed equally.

# Fish-Networking Vs Mirror
|
||||
|
||||
{% hint style="danger" %}
|
||||
These benchmarks are very old. Server outbound bandwidth metrics have changed.
|
||||
|
||||
As of the date 2023/08/26 Mirror is believed to be approximately 5% more efficient in bandwidth, and Fish-Networking about 90-95% more efficient in bandwidth.
|
||||
|
||||
Example:
|
||||
|
||||
if Mirror previously sent 100mB/s they are now expected to send 95mB/s.
|
||||
|
||||
If Fish-Networking previously sent 100mB/s it would now send 5mB/s

# Pro, Projects, and Support
|
||||
|
||||
## FishNet Pro
|
||||
|
||||
Some features are only available in Fish-Networking Pro.
|
||||
|
||||
All business [support tiers](pro-projects-and-support.md#support-tier-options) also grant a complimentary lifetime Pro license.
|
||||
|
||||
{% hint style="success" %}
|
||||
We have an extremely flexible sharing license for Fish-Networking Pro, allowing teams and classrooms to work on a single purchase. You can view that license [here](https://github.com/FirstGearGames/FishNet/blob/main/LICENSE.md).
|
||||
{% endhint %}
|
||||
|
||||
#### Features for Pro:
|
||||
|
||||
> **Lag Compensation**
|
||||
>
|
||||
> Another very important feature for precision-based gaming is [lag compensation](../../fishnet-building-blocks/components/colliderrollback.md). This is the act of rolling back colliders in time to where a client had seen them; this ensures accurate hit registration. This technique is applicable to several genre types but is most commonly seen in shooter games
|
||||
|
||||
> [Level of Detail](../../guides/features/level-of-detail.md) optimizes network traffic and client-side performance by dynamically adjusting data synchronization frequency. By scaling updates according to their distance from the viewing client, the system ensures precise interactions nearby while minimizing resource usage for distant objects.
|
||||
|
||||
> **Automatic Code Stripping**
|
||||
>
|
||||
> [Code stripping](../../guides/features/code-stripping.md) helps protect your game server by removing sensitive logic that the player should not be aware of. Far as we know, Fish-Networking is the only solution with the ability to remove server code from clients, and client code from the server.
|
||||
|
||||
> **Extrapolation, NetworkTransform**
|
||||
>
|
||||
> When enabled the [NetworkTransform](../../fishnet-building-blocks/components/network-transform.md) will extrapolate as necessary to create a smoother experience for unstable connections.
|
||||
|
||||
> **Synchronized Parameters, NetworkAnimator**
|
||||
>
|
||||
> Customize which parameters are synchronized over the network on the [NetworkAnimator](../../fishnet-building-blocks/components/networkanimator.md#synchronized-parameters-pro-feature).
|
||||
|
||||
> **Yak**
|
||||
>
|
||||
> [Yak](../../fishnet-building-blocks/transports/yak-pro-feature.md) is a transport which provides an entirely offline experience using your multiplayer code. When combined with Multipass (available to free users), you may run your game offline or online.
|
||||
|
||||
## Paid projects
|
||||
|
||||
Projects are completed Unity projects which act as a template or learning opportunity. These are separate from FishNet Pro.
|
||||
|
||||
> #### **Lobby and Worlds**
|
||||
>
|
||||
> Lobby and Worlds is designed to use a single server for a lobby containing your players, as well create games on the same server using rooms created by your players. Each room is isolated from other players, both visually and in network traffic.
|
||||
>
|
||||
> Many aspects of the lobby can be customized to your needs. Lobby and Worlds allows you to design your game normally in its own scenes, while the project takes care of everything else.
|
||||
>
|
||||
> Features include:
|
||||
>
|
||||
> * Loading any number of game scenes, multiple times; think dungeon instances!
|
||||
> * Sign in system.
|
||||
> * Lobby to create and join rooms.
|
||||
> * Join rooms after start, optional.
|
||||
> * Password rooms.
|
||||
> * Ready up system, optional.
|
||||
> * Kick players.
|
||||
> * Player limits.
|
||||
> * Customizable lobby logic and demo game.
|
||||
|
||||
> #### **FPS Land**
|
||||
>
|
||||
> This project is a full server authoritative demo on how you may get started on creating an FPS game with Fish-Networking.
|
||||
>
|
||||
> Key points are:
|
||||
>
|
||||
> * Full server authoritative: movement, sound, firing, reloading, animations, etc.
|
||||
> * Four weapon types: rifle, pistol, knife, and grenades.
|
||||
> * Lag compensation for weapons such as rifles.
|
||||
> * Lag compensation projectiles, such as grenades.
|
||||
> * Picked up items.
|
||||
> * Movement modifiers from weapon weight and walking.
|
||||
> * Pet friendly goats.
|
||||
|
||||

|
||||
|
||||
### GitHub and Patreon perks
|
||||
|
||||
{% hint style="info" %}
|
||||
Becoming a supporter is designed to be indie-dev and budget friendly.
|
||||
{% endhint %}
|
||||
|
||||
When obtaining Fish-Networking Pro through GitHub or Patreon you will have access to both Pro and Projects.
|
||||
|
||||
You **must** make a one-time payment of $10 for your initial downloads. Afterwards you're welcome to switch to $2/month for updates. You may leave the updates tier and join us again at any time.
|
||||
|
||||
When on any $10 tier or higher you will gain access to Priority Support, this includes your initial purchase; see [support tier options](pro-projects-and-support.md#support-tier-options) for more information on this.
|
||||
|
||||
{% hint style="info" %}
|
||||
Business support tiers are **only** available on GitHub.
|
||||
{% endhint %}
|
||||
|
||||
**Lifetime benefits:**
|
||||
|
||||
{% hint style="success" %}
|
||||
You can get bonus Priority Support months on GitHub!
|
||||
|
||||
Our one-time $60 GitHub option provides lifetime access to Pro and Project downloads, as well 8 total months of Priority Support, rather than 6 months of Priority Support when purchased monthly.
|
||||
{% endhint %}
|
||||
|
||||
* Lifetime updates to both Pro and Projects can be obtained by supporting over-time, or by a one-time payment.
|
||||
* Lifetime updates to projects are received after your total contributing meets $35.
|
||||
* Lifetime updates to Fish-Networking Pro are received after your total contribution meets $60.
|
||||
* Should you sponsor $200 at once or over-time, you will also gain lifetime access to Priority Support.
|
||||
|
||||
{% hint style="info" %}
|
||||
All higher tiers provide access to any content beneath them.
|
||||
|
||||
For example: If you have access to Fish-Networking Pro, you also have access to Projects.
|
||||
{% endhint %}
|
||||
|
||||
### Unity Asset Store perks
|
||||
|
||||
Asset store purchases provide lifetime updates to Fish-Networking Pro.
|
||||
|
||||
You can also gain access to Priority Support with your asset store purchase! Your priority support months begin only after you claim your perks on our Discord; see [After Purchasing](pro-projects-and-support.md#after-purchasing) please.
|
||||
|
||||
{% hint style="info" %}
|
||||
The amount of months received are directly related to what goes back into the project after Unity's fees. If you purchase Fish-Networking Pro at $50 you will receive 4 months of Priority Support, and 2 months at $25.
|
||||
{% endhint %}
|
||||
|
||||
## After purchasing
|
||||
|
||||
{% hint style="danger" %}
|
||||

||||

Head over to the **Account** page, login with either GitHub or Patreon (depending on which you used), and then scroll down to find your available downloads.
|
||||
|
||||
If you purchased Fish-Networking Pro on the asset store, please use the asset store to download Fish-Networking Pro.

{% hint style="info" %}

||||
|
||||
Do not forget your Discord roles!
|
||||
{% endhint %}
|
||||
|
||||
You can claim supporter roles on our Discord no matter what purchase technique you use, but as previously said GitHub offers the most benefits per dollar.
|
||||
|
||||
Roles show off that you're a supporter and are crucial for gaining you access to our priority help channels if you're on a Priority Support tier.
|
||||
|
||||
Business tiers are unique in that they receive dedicated channels. Please contact FirstGearGames on Discord to have your support channel created.
|
||||
|
||||
**How to claim your role:**
|
||||
|
||||
* **GitHub Instructions:** log into your account on our website. After logging in you, will be shown a temporary ID Token in the **Discord Roles** section. Copy this Token and direct message our Discord bot **Sharky** with it.
|
||||
* **Patreon Instructions:** [**https://support.patreon.com/hc/en-us/articles/212052266-Getting-Discord-access**](https://support.patreon.com/hc/en-us/articles/212052266-Getting-Discord-access)
