Screeps3D

A 3D client for the MMORTS Screeps.com

Goal

To build a 3D client for Screeps.

Progress

It has a fairly solid foundation so that if anyone wants to contribute to it, it is at a good point. There is a websocket/http client that could be fleshed out more but has all the basic functionality. There is a solid system for rendering rooms/objects. At the moment the project is organized into two systems:

• ScreepsAPI - HTTP/Websocket client for communicating with the server
• Screeps3D - Login, WorldView, RoomView, etc.

It would be ideal to keep these two separate, so that the ScreepsAPI can be exported as a package for use in other screeps/unity3D projects.

Here are the major areas that we would like to tackle next:

• Get it working with private servers
• Gameplay options like hotkeys, camera controls, console colors, etc.
• Finish model set for room objects (Extractors)
• Rendering roads
• Rendering creeps (new model with player icon downloaded and assigned as texture)
• Rendering creep, tower, link, etc. actions (particle systems are an excellent way to make these visually appealing)
• Creep Say (I'm imagining a floating text that appears above their heads and drifts up to eventually disappear)
• Figure out the best way to subscribe/unsubscribe from rooms, fog of war, etc.
• Visualize nukes flying from source to target room (#58)

Contributing

The Project is built using Unity and C# so the following software is required to run it.

Software Requirements

• Visual Studio 2019 Community Edition
• Unity 2019.3.12f1
• Blender 2.79
  • If no models are showing up, you need to install blender, .blend files are used in unity
  • Models might take a while before showing up after installing blender, it has to "reimport" the .blend files before they render.

After installation you can open the project in unity, and in the asset menu you can "Open C# Project" to open visual studio

• The C# Solution is constructed every time you open the project with Unity.

• Merges in git

  • https://docs.unity3d.com/Manual/SmartMerge.html
  • open cli run git mergetool
