Struct GhostDeltaPredictor

For internal use only. Used by the ghost component serializer to calculate (predict) the new value for a field, given the two previous baseline values.

This value provides a good estimate for current value of a variable when changes are linear or otherwise predictable. I.e. Small deltas have good compression ratios.

Syntax

public struct GhostDeltaPredictor

Constructors

GhostDeltaPredictor(NetworkTick, NetworkTick, NetworkTick, NetworkTick)

Construct the predictor using the last three recent baselines ticks. The ticks are used to calculate the relative weight that is applied to the baseline values.

Declaration

public GhostDeltaPredictor(NetworkTick tick, NetworkTick baseline0_tick, NetworkTick baseline1_tick, NetworkTick baseline2_tick)

Parameters

Type	Name	Description
NetworkTick	tick	the current server tick
NetworkTick	baseline0_tick	Network tick baseline
NetworkTick	baseline1_tick	Network tick baseline
NetworkTick	baseline2_tick	Network tick baseline

Methods

PredictInt(int, int, int)

Calculate the predicted value for the given integer, using the previous three baselines.

Declaration

public int PredictInt(int baseline0, int baseline1, int baseline2)

Parameters

Type	Name	Description
int	baseline0	Tick baseline
int	baseline1	Tick baseline
int	baseline2	Tick baseline

Returns

Type	Description
int	Predicted value for given integer

PredictLong(long, long, long)

Calculate the predicted value for the given long, using the previous three baselines.

Declaration

public long PredictLong(long baseline0, long baseline1, long baseline2)

Parameters

Type	Name	Description
long	baseline0	Tick baseline
long	baseline1	Tick baseline
long	baseline2	Tick baseline

Returns

Type	Description
long	Predicted value for given long
