Implement a loading screen and cancel button for joining or creating a room, instantiate and manage a loading canvas prefab, wire network events, and load the lobby scene on shutdown.
Learn how lag compensation reconciles client predictions and server state using a buffer of past hitboxes, enabling accurate hits in Fusion multiplayer despite client proxy and interpolation.
Build a respawn UI with a timer that activates when the local player dies and deactivates after respawn, using a respawn panel prefab and fixed update network logic.
Prevent jump spam by using a grounded check with a 2D overlap box and ground layer, then disable inter-player collisions via the physics 2D layer collision matrix.
Create a multiplayer chat bubble system in Unity using a world-space canvas and Text Mesh Pro. Type messages in an input field; bubbles appear above avatars and typing blocks movement.
Congratulate learners on completing the course, and point to next study topics like client-server and client-host modes, plus joining the Discord, sharing reviews, and helping others.
Convert to fusion 2.0.4 stable by updating the fusion API, integrating addressables, and refining prefab loading and object spawning for host and client setups.
