NetworkMapCache

public sealed class NetworkMapCache

The contents of an entity's maps kept as opaque bytes, by a party that relays them without knowing their types: the gateway, so a late joiner is sent the current contents (docs/replicated-collections.md D6). Seeded from a full section, updated by delta sections, encoded back into a full section on demand (once per change).

Methods

CountOf

public int CountOf(byte mapIndex);

How many entries the map at mapIndex holds; 0 when unknown.

Get

public byte[] Get(byte mapIndex, byte[] key);

The value bytes held for a key, or null.

Reset

public void Reset(byte[] section);

Forget everything and take section (a full copy, or null for no maps).

Apply

public void Apply(ArraySegment<byte> section);

Apply a section, full or delta.

Encode

public byte[] Encode();

The contents as a full section; empty when there are no maps.

Fold

public static byte[] Fold(byte[] full, byte[] delta);

A full section with a delta section applied to it: for a spawn that is held and will not be sent again.
