andrew 99595ef87c Add host-authoritative world-state sync
Implement host-authoritative time/weather sync across server and clients. Adds a new worldState packet (and worldStateHost for host assignment) and server-side host tracking/reassignment to the lowest remaining playerId when the host disconnects. Plugin-side changes introduce F4T::WorldStateSync (new header + implementation), polling/apply hooks in the game-thread main loop, and Networking support to send/receive/parse worldState/worldStateHost packets. The server validates host-only sends, relays worldState to peers, broadcasts worldStateHost on host handoff, and augments logging/stats. Protocol and documentation files updated (protocol/world-state.md, docs/*) and server/fake_client.py extended to track/print host world-state snapshots.

Commonwealth Online Plugin

This is the native Commonwealth Online F4SE plugin using CommonLibF4.

Requirements

  • XMake [3.0.0+]
  • C++23 Compiler (MSVC or Clang-CL)

Getting Started

git clone --recurse-submodules https://github.com/libxse/Fallout4Together
cd Fallout4Together

Build

To build the project, run the following command:

xmake build

Note: This will generate a build/windows/ directory in the project's root directory with the build output.

Build Output (Optional)

If you want to redirect the build output, set one of the following environment variables:

  • Path to a Mod Manager mods folder: XSE_FO4_MODS_PATH

    or

  • Path to a Fallout 4 install folder: XSE_FO4_GAME_PATH

Project Generation (Optional)

If you use Visual Studio, run the following command:

xmake project -k vsxmake

Note: This will generate a vsxmakeXXXX/ directory in the project's root directory using the latest version of Visual Studio installed on the system.

Alternatively, if you do not use Visual Studio, you can generate a compile_commands.json file for use with a laguage server like clangd in any code editor that supports it, like vscode:

xmake project -k compile_commands

Note: You must have a language server extension installed to make use of this file. I recommend clangd. Do not have more than one installed at a time as they will conflict with each other. I also recommend installing the xmake extension if available to make building the project easier.

Upgrading Packages (Optional)

If you want to upgrade the project's dependencies, run the following commands:

xmake repo --update
xmake require --upgrade
