      Yep, I'm trying to reserve judgement here....but this is a big test for CIG, and I think they know it. You don't "Call your shot" unless you are either sure you can hit it, or need the boost getting it right gives you. Either way, the next 6 months is going to be make or break time I fear.

    Yeah it has been said by CIG many times before that Squadron 42 runs as a client and server based model. It's just that the server potion of the game is running localy on your device.
    So I would imagin both the Game client, infrastructure and server codebases are shared between the games and its just the networking side of it and variance bettween the S42 and SC feature set that need to be addressed when they are porting code between the two projects.

    • @MrTybio
      @MrTybio  6 місяців тому +1

      I'd also think that the client version is stripped down a bit. No need for as much code to work with sync issues, or other such problems. But I get your point...I'm pondering a "Deeper Dive" for the uber nerds or coders who are fans. I'm struggling with generalizing enough for the general population to understand a concept without sounding like I'm a fool to people who actually know the topic. One of the burdens of a communicator ;). I mean, even I'm not happy with how I explained compile time options...as you said "BUILD_LOCAL_INSTALLER" vs "BUILD_MMO_CLIENT" With the proper flags in the code to include the needed stuff for networking and exclude client code not needed for online...etc.
      Perhaps I should do a main episode, then a "Deeper Dive" when needed to get into the more nitty gritty for those interested...or just split the video into two sections....hurm, worth a thought!

    What they have presented yesterday, is in the line of thinking in my predictions (3.22 will be a long lasting patch / 4 months), albeit I upped the patch one number higher as I expect this import of squadron gui tested features in Star Citizen will likely take a longer time. 3.22 is bound to stay a longer time with us, replication layer testing stays for the forseable time in this release branch, and instead of 3.24, 3.23 will receive the SQ42 ui updates. But I think it will take longer than 4 months to get this released.

  • @SETHthegodofchaos
    @SETHthegodofchaos 6 місяців тому +1

    Great video. Although I am not sure I fully understood it.
    3:24 hmm, how did you conclude that? 🤔 What do you mean by separating and infrastructure? The networking/replication code?
    I understood it as them abstracting networking code away under the Seralized Variables code API feature? I mean, before the game and networking code was already in separate functions already. The thing they changed seems to have been mainly the ease of how networking (not the network itself) could be setup in the code as well as optimizing bandwidth. This functionality might now be redone with gRPC instead.
    3:30 I can understand why you wouldnt want to use "netcode", but doesnt networking or state replication make more sense here, rather than infrastructure? When I think of infrastructure I think more in the realms of Kubernetes and AWS. And less so about my software.
    3:35 That might be true (I am not as deep into networks as you are) but netcode is (also) an established and widely used term for multiplayer videogames. I personally like to define it as everything that comes after the basic networking and state replication systems. Mainly the code that is responsible for latency compensation. Mainly by reducing the effects of perceived latency on the player clients. Keywords here being client side prediction with server reconciliation/rollback and server lag compensation (the server predicting what the clients saw). Together, it makes the game more smooth and reduces the impact of latency. There are entire YT channels that compared different videogame netcode implementations and their pros and cons (e.g. still dying while already behind cover). Netcode could even be the bandwidth optimizations from Seralized Variables and OCS.
    Therefore, I dont agree with your definition and refusal to use the term. I think it has to be more differentiated given the context of videogames. Especially because using terms like infrastructure makes it more confusing for gamers again.
    4:35 Shouldnt Game Code be Engine Code and Infrastructure be Game Code/Game Logic? And Network would be Networking/Replication/Netcode. And underneath that the network itself? Maybe I misunderstood but this seems incorrect to me.
    5:45 But the thing is that even the singleplayer game uses Seralized Variables and OCS for persisting game state. So that we can have savefiles to losd from (although its more like an entire DB). So even parts of the bottom layer (which are networking code) is being used locally for the singleplayer games too.
    I know this may sound like "you dont know game development" and it is kind of a meme in the critics camp. But while I do think you are highly competent in your domain, but since the field of computer science is just insanely large, I recommend having another look at networking and netcode for videogames. In just fear info in this video is going to confuse people more than it is actually helping. Which would be a shame as I dont think it is its primary goal.

    • @MrTybio
      @MrTybio  6 місяців тому +1

      Thanks for taking the time to post such a thoughtful question! I'm assembling all of these from the comments and going to ponder how best to address them. I think I may record a "Deeper Dive" tomorrow that gets much further into how I believe they have this setup with a framework (Rather than Infrastructure, I agree with your point there) that allows them to build stand-alone or MMO client from the same general code base...so they just have to do the work to tie in these systems to the functions exposed by the network team. But I have to build more detailed flow charts before I have any chance of making a logical statement here :)

    It does have a chance if the networking team has a DevOps representative on each team. They went to DevOps many years ago, with more developers on the PU. I know the teams can make at least 70% output if the teams are tight. The other 30% are the most complex systems.

  • @RoLo87rl
    @RoLo87rl 6 місяців тому

    But... I think in this last SCL, they didn't talk about server meshing, nor the replication layer, nor pyro and jump points or even Vulkan. That is critical, key and a turning point. We are facing a new and WE HOPEFULLY definitive 3.18 that lays the most basic foundations in the quality of life of the players.
    We are assuming that meshing, replication layer are going to be included and I don't believe it. Rather a general facelift carried over from the work already done in SQ42.
    They talk about having adapted all the SQ42 functions ported to the PU with all the work that this entails.
    They will carry substantial modifications of elements that for the most part are already found in the current legacy and original code of the PU.
    The list of features they have announced for 3.23 would be this, I think I left something out, but basically:
    -Improved EVA function (even without the push and pull system to move using nearby surfaces)
    -Distribution centers (concept similar to a city or station but on the surface of the planets, all services concentrated)
    -MasterModes for each ship. (I suppose in summary they will be simple speed modifiers in certain situations such as combat, atmospheric or space flight)
    -New Quantum Booster to jump between points in the same solar system. (It replaces the current original system that only allows you to jump from point to point in a straight line like a train on rails)
    -Replacement of the entire legacy user interface with the new and redesigned one in building blocks (Mobiglas/Hud/Starmap/Radar/action sphere/etc) They have commented that the radar will eventually reach all the areas of the mapping as they add them all radar areas. The replacement by building blocks has already been carried out with all the ASOP screens and from different stores/services should not be a problem) (Hopefully the mfd of each ship will begin to arrive progressively as well)
    -Compass and other player status (finally, they will implement the player's vital statistics and orientation)
    -Character interaction system with the interactable environment, replaces the current and legacy interaction system including ragdolls that accompany certain interactions (in part we have already seen including certain changes in the gladius ship, where the character interacts with the buttons on the cabin)
    -New dynamic sights and crosshair system (The sights are implemented as a shader technique and the new crosshair simply enables third-person aiming)
    -Manipulation of magazine bullets (the Tarkov fashion)
    -Replacement of the character designer (They have already done this before and now they are going to leave it as seen in other MMOs)
    -Personal hangars (Controlling the loading of objects in the ships, surely instantiated spaces for each player or group of players in the party)
    -New xeno threat... (Generation of dynamic Raid-type missions like the current assault on Orison)
    -Modification and readjustment of the prices of the entire current market (Has Tony ZzzZ been fired? Will there no longer be a quanta system managing the trade?)
    And they have warned that some of them will arrive after 3.23. 3.23.x 3.24?? or they will arrive early.
    They also haven't talked about pyro and jump points. I think that both server meshing and pyro will arrive in the long-awaited version 4.0 or close to it like PTU or Preview Channel. This summer? Late summer Q3?
    They talk about quite a few weeks, but I think they do not exceed Q1-Q2 for the topics covered in the SCL.
    I don't see it as titanic that they deliver these things in 3-4 months, taking into account all the time they have worked on it and so vehemently.
    The worrying part is the division of spatial zones into servers and the communication between them (Server meshing), that is still behind all this facelift that is coming in the short-medium term.
    Until then, until meshing, rep layer and vulkan (local performance) are implemented and debugged, servers and services will continue to behave as before. But everything is more beautiful and comfortable (which is already a lot). (And with less 30k, since they are fixing the faults that cause it PLUS the new "hot recovery system" (Rep Layer)
    It is a progressive change that will culminate in version 4.0, 2024? together with SQ42 or near it?? maybe...

    • @MrTybio
      @MrTybio  6 місяців тому

    @blazemonger1 6 місяців тому

    Good video again, my only concern is that they may be trying to bit off too much in one patch, while also seeing the possibility that for this to be done right a lot of it needs to go in at the same time.
    I do expect 3.23 to initially not be great as far as stability goes, I think it will be breaking a lot of things which are not expected and we'll see quite a few fixes before it gets better and that is fine as long as CIG can go in and fix these issues in quick succession. I do agree that if CIG pull off what they say the intent to in the end with 3.23, they will make a massive, massive step forward and we will be so much closer to the next big step, which will follow much quicker this time ..

      As long as they don't pull of a 3.18, we're good. They crammed in as many features as they possibly could, all the while bringing probably the biggest overhaul to their underlying network infrastructure at that time in the same patch, which completely broke the game for months. They had to do multiple hotfix patches just to get the game in a somewhat playable state. Even post 3.19, it was bad.
      That being said, I just hope they do intense playtests of Replication Layer in the 3.23 Tech Preview & then push it to live

That's why they created the Tech Preview channel in the first place. I'm just stating my opinion, with a bit of speculation that if CIG were to implement the RL, it would most likely have to be in a 3.23.x patch rather than the main patch itself as this patch is significantly bigger just in terms of features. Who knows how many things will break if the Replication Layer was also to be crammed in the same build? But considering their approach to this, I'm pretty sure they won't take that risk.

    There's no need to be skeptical, the work has been held back for a long time now, stuff has been done for many months already, it's all about that NetCode and adapting stuff to multiplayer. I have a strong inkling that CIG wanted to release all of this in one huge big 4.0 patch with both Pyro system and all these new features, but that clearly didn't work so now they'll release everything before Pyro instead.

    Ehh, close enough of an explanation, I suppose. A bit of a net-centric view though. Plus, it will a big mess for a little while. But not the same type of mess as 3.18. With 3.18 it was more the code dealing with the underlying structure that needed a lot of ironing out and more underlying structure to make it work better that was likely not foreseen until 3.18 was out and could not be realized 3.19 and later.
    This update is more of plugging feature sets into the underlying code that is made for it. With this many feature sets coming in it will be bumpy just due to the number and there will be little issues that will need to be ironed out to make a given feature work smoothly with its underlying structure that supports it in the MMO version.
    This is not the issue.. and really has not been for years. Their ideas are sound and were very likely to be made possible as technology had come along far enough to make it happen. The real question going forward is how effectively they will be able to realize all their plans and how much will they have to scale back features to make it all work on current technology.

      The answer will be how many players they can have in a given area against the effectiveness of server meshing without having to reduce the quality of everything else too much. The good thing is that the tech now exists and it can only improve. And, since it is pretty evident that we have also been paying for CiG to create a game engine that can be licensed to other companies, that will improve many games in the future, hopefully@@MrTybio

    What Citcon showed was the long ago promised payoff for delaying things to focus on the engine platform first that could service all the intended titles with shared assets and data interfaces. We have seen the new EVA many times over the years in demos or for SQ42 teasers as well as the newer UIs. Those are all Star Engine client features regardless of local or network play so they will be relatively easy to port over because It's mostly eye candy and animations. The MMO server issues will still be there until that side changes. Now that we have an engine coming together making the SQ42 sequels will be easier and not need most of the devs. Content made for the MMO or SQ can serve both titles as well as Arena Commander. They are essentially building 3 game experiences in parallel with shared client assets consuming different back-end services and game config rules. Like you said they have decoupled the service layers of the game. Modular distributed systems are easier to build and iterate on but harder to design without painting yourself into a corner sometimes.

      Yep, I think of 3.23 as our pay-off for the waiting...rather than gating all of this with 4.0 and Pyro once the hard work with replication layer and meshing is done, they are taking a chance to move all of the "low hanging fruit" (Relative term here people) into the PU so they get some breathing room for the rest of the year on the server infrastructure which is likely to be much less...er, cleanly deployed.

    It's hard for me to get on board with this idea that 3.23 has "all this stuff" and that 3-4 months is the time frame of delivery. Since 2016 S42 has been progressively but systematically absorbing more and more resource. They have continually pushed the narrative that this is justifiable as all the work will benefit the PU.
    With CIG saying they're now shifting focus to the PU, there should be a complete dump of stuff backed up and waiting to be pushed to the PU. At it's best, any perceived acceleration now is merely fulfilling the role of playing catch up.

      That's not how I see it, but I totally understand where you are coming from. I've seen amazing things when a quality dev team has the time and space to work....so I think it is possible...but a big big ask. I'm not sure I'd have gone out this aggressively setting expectations, but if they can live up to them it will be a base-line change in...well, everything I suppose.

      @@MrTybio given the history of the project, I do feel that the way they have laid their cards out can only be driven by a level of confidence that is quite high. There are always issues with SC and I'm sure some things will slip, but Ive a feeling they might be on top of this one. My reasoning is that a lot of stuff is probably just a matter of porting content and that they have significantly more people than usual working on this. I also feel like a lot of what they're aiming to push out has been in dev for quite some time, probably longer than people are actually thinking.
      This has a vibe of things coming together about it. We know big projects can hide the progress for a long time, only for it to come together quickly "at the end" from the end user perspective. I feel like the probably have a good 2 years worth of effort that is coming together, which ties in with my original replies thinking. I'm not as concerned as you seem to be about a repeat of the 3.18 patch personally, but you never can actually tell.

    here is something to ponder..
    This patch is the ONLY patch we are getting this year.. ie, all the other patches we get will be based on THIS one. Yep let that sink in .. alll the other patches bah the last one are ALL going to be based on this 23 patch.
    :) .. hope that helps.

      That's not how I read things at all. I think 3.23 will land before June and the rest of the year will be the server side work. But I suppose time will tell!

( if all goes well )
      as somenone who did game dev.. im pretty sure thats how i c it being planned and why they are so bullish to give us all the mas content drop from the get go.. most of it is done .. rest will come in later patches at updated.. ( and ships ofc ) :D

    I am a little surprised, that so many people are hyped this hard about the patch. It seemed to me like just a bunch of new lipstick for the pig.
    This was especially obvious in the economy bit, which sounded more like ship grind planning than a complex system for the players to interact with.
    Maybe it is the glacial development speed so far, that make rather superficial changes look more meaningful, while the big questions behind „how much does the ship cost in game compared to the $ price in the pledge store?“ are avoided.
    For example, how do they want to resolve the problem of item based (ships/components/fps equipment) progression in a full loot game with a pledge store and insurance?

    • @MrTybio
      @MrTybio  6 місяців тому

      The way I'm thinking is that if they get this done, then they have hundreds of people who will move on to the in-game stuff as the network team fights with replication layer split, meshing etc....then when Pyro is out and a little stable, late this year or early 25...they will have another batch to dump of progression/mission/reputation updates. But that's just me having a theory, all of it depends on 3.23 going well...so I'm trying to keep that in the back of my mind for a "What comes next" video if I ever get more confidence in things :)

    Their versioning system is ridiculous, the amount of features they are going to release is at least should sound like 3.3, if not 4.0, this is definitely major release for them.

      I don't think they care much. The only one that matters is Alpha 4.0 with the full game structure in place....from there I'd expect a Beta to be the next major version, not Alpha 5.0...but honestly, who the heck knows.

    I think you are leaning severely optimistic for sensationalism, from past experiences any change or bug "fix" results in another disruption somewhere else and gets designated as a fix later issue. 3.23 could be a larger example of throwing shit at a wall and seeing what sticks.
