deltasnare v0.1.0

=== UNDER CONSTRUCTION ===

Deltasnare is a game state manager that encapsulates the gamecode into a pure, repeatable "delta" function, which transforms the state by exactly one step, one "tick". It is designed for simplicity even for multiplayer games.

Checklist

  • Meshing server
• Miscellaneous
  • Timer
  • Connected render loop
  • Interpolation support
  • Full documentation

Usage

const Deltasnare = require('deltasnare')

// const delta = (state, input, options) => {...}
// const options = {...}

// create the state manager
const deltasnare = new Deltasnare(delta, option)

// listen to tick events, submit the input every tick
deltasnare.on('tick', () => {
  // const input = {...} // check input here
  deltasnare.setInput(input)
})

// const render = (state) => {}

// built-in render loop (emits once every frame) with support for interpolation
deltasnare.on('frame', (state) => {
  render(state)
})

// deltasnare.interpolator = (current, previous, ratio) => {}

// const initialState = {}

// everything is set up, time to start the game
deltasnare.startSingleplayer(initialState)

// alternatively, you can connect to a network instance
// deltasnare.start... that's a TODO

TODO: finish documentation (sorry)
