Add a temporary in-cell holding fallback for the single placed proxy actor when no valid same-cell remote player is available. Introduces kProxyHiddenHoldingPosition, ProxyLifecycleState, RemotePlayerSelection, MoveProxyToHoldingPosition and RestoreProxyForRemotePlayer, plus selection/state-tracking and throttled logs. The controller now moves the proxy to the hidden position on disconnect, disappearance, or cell-mismatch and snaps it back when a valid same-cell remote appears. Documentation and dev log updated to describe the lifecycle and rationale (docs/architecture.md, docs/dev-log.md, protocol/player-sync.md).
Protocol
This folder documents the planned network protocol for Fallout 4 Together.
The first protocol should be simple and focused on player transform sync.
First Packet Types
- Welcome packet
- Transform packet
- Disconnect packet
Future Packet Types
- Animation state packet
- Fire weapon packet
- Health packet
- Chat packet
- Cell change packet
Design Goals
The protocol should be:
- Simple
- Easy to debug
- Versioned
- Safe to extend
- Clear enough to test outside Fallout 4
Early Testing
The protocol should be testable using fake clients before being connected to Fallout 4.
