Member Function Documentation

◆ ProcessExistingNode()

void Dry::Connection::ProcessExistingNode	(	Node *	node,
		NodeReplicationState &	nodeState
	)

private

Process a node that the client has already received.

Todo:: Searching for the component is a potential CPU hotspot. It should be cached

void Dry::Connection::ProcessSceneUpdate	(	int	msgID,
		MemoryBuffer &	msg
	)

private

Process a scene update message from the server. Called by Network.

Todo:: On mobile devices processing this message may potentially cause a crash if it attempts to load new GPU resources while the application is minimized
