Unigine::Game Class
| Header: | #include <UnigineGame.h> |
This class contains functions to control the game logic of the application. It provides functionality for:
- Assigning a player to the Engine Camera viewport.
- Pausing, speeding up and slowing down rendering, physics or game logic.
Usage Example#
The example below creates a PlayerSpectator and sets it as the active Engine Camera. The player is rotated around Y axis with the specified speed, which is set via setScale():
- Pressing F slows down the game logic, so player's rotation slows down too.
- Pressing G speeds up the game logic and, therefore, player's rotation.
Source code (C++)
#include "AppWorldLogic.h"
#include <UniginePlayers.h>
#include <UnigineGame.h>
using namespace Unigine;
using namespace Math;
// declare a PlayerSpectator pointer
PlayerSpectatorPtr player;
int AppWorldLogic::init()
{
// create a new PlayerSpectator instance
player = PlayerSpectator::create();
// set necessary parameters: FOV, ZNear, ZFar, view direction vector and position.
player->setFov(90.0f);
player->setZNear(0.1f);
player->setZFar(10000.0f);
player->setViewDirection(vec3(0.0f, 1.0f, 0.0f));
player->setWorldPosition(Vec3(-1.6f, -1.7f, 1.7f));
// set the player to the Game singleton instance
Game::setPlayer(player);
return 1;
}
int AppWorldLogic::update()
{
// slow down the game logic
if (Input::isKeyDown(Input::KEY_F)) {
Game::setScale(Game::getScale() / 2);
Log::message("Game logic speed has been decreased. Frame duration is %f seconds\n", Game::getIFps());
}
// speed up the game logic
if (Input::isKeyDown(Input::KEY_G)) {
Game::setScale(Game::getScale() * 2);
Log::message("Game logic speed has been increased. Frame duration is %f seconds\n", Game::getIFps());
}
// rotate the player 45 degrees per second around Y axis
player->setWorldRotation(player->getWorldRotation() * quat(0.0f, 1.0f, 0.0f, 45.0f * Game::getIFps()));
return 1;
}
int AppWorldLogic::shutdown()
{
// clear the pointer
player.clear();
return 1;

void setData ( const char * data ) #
Sets user data associated with the game logic. This string is written directly into a *.world file. Namely, into the data child tag of the game tag, for example:Source code (XML)
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<world version="2.16.0.2">
<game>
<data>User data</data>
</game>
</world>Arguments
- const char * data - User data. Data can contain an XML formatted string.
const char * getData ( ) const#
Returns user data associated with the game logic. This string is written directly into a *.world file. Namely, into the data child tag of the game tag, for example:Source code (XML)
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<world version="2.16.0.2">
<game>
<data>User data</data>
</game>
</world>Return value
User data. Data can contain an XML formatted string.void setEnabled ( bool enabled ) #
Pauses or resumes the game logic.Arguments
- bool enabled - 1 to resume the game logic, 0 to pause it.
bool isEnabled ( ) const#
Returns a value indicating if the game is paused or not.Return value
1 if the game logic is not paused; otherwise, 0.void setFrame ( int frame ) #
Sets the game frame with the given number as the current one.Arguments
- int frame - Frame number.
int getFrame ( ) const#
Returns the number of the current game frame.Source code (C++)
// get the current game frame
int loading_frames = Game::getFrame();
// perform asynchronous nodes loading
// ...
// calculate the number of game frames required for nodes loading
loading_frames = Game::getFrame() - loading_frames;Return value
Frame number.void setIFps ( float ifps ) #
Sets the scaled inverse FPS value (the time in seconds it took to complete the last frame). This function sets a fixed FPS that does not depend on the real FPS the hardware is capable of. That is, it forces constant frame time increments between rendered frames, used for animation/expression update etc. To remove the FPS limitation, use -1.The function is useful when grabbing the video reel with a fixed FPS value (for example, 25 frames per second).
Arguments
- float ifps - Inverse FPS value (1/FPS) in seconds.-1 removes the FPS limitation.
float getIFps ( ) const#
Returns the scaled inverse FPS value (the time in seconds it took to complete the last frame). This value does not depend on the real FPS the hardware is capable of. -1 means no Inverse FPS value is set.Source code (C++)
NodePtr node;
// ...
// get an inverse FPS value
float ifps = Game::getIFps();
// move the node up by 0.1 unit every second instead of every frame
node->worldTranslate(Math::Vec3(0.0f, 0.0f, 0.1f * ifps));Return value
Scaled inverse FPS value (1/FPS) in seconds. If the game is paused, 0 is returned.Ptr<Obstacle> getIntersection ( Vec3 p0, Vec3 p1, float radius, int mask, const Vector<Ptr<Node>> & exclude, Math::Vec3 * intersection ) #
Performs intersection to find if a pathfinding Obstacle is located within the cylinder between two points. The specified obstacles will be ignored.Notice
World space coordinates are used for this function.
Arguments
- Vec3 p0 - Start point.
- Vec3 p1 - End point.
- float radius - Radius of the intersection cylinder.
- int mask - Obstacle intersection mask. The obstacle is ignored if its mask does not match.
- const Vector<Ptr<Node>> & exclude - Array with excluded obstacles. These obstacle nodes are ignored when performing intersection.
- Math::Vec3 * intersection - Intersection point.
Return value
Intersected obstacle.Ptr<Obstacle> getIntersection ( Vec3 p0, Vec3 p1, float radius, int mask, const Ptr<GameIntersection> & intersection ) #
Performs intersection to find if a pathfinding obstacle is located within the cylinder between two points.
Notice
World space coordinates are used for this function.
The following example shows how you can get the intersection point (vec3) of the cylinder between two points with an obstacle. In this example we specify a cylinder from the point of the camera (vec3 p0) to the point of the mouse pointer (vec3 p1) with the specified radius. The executing sequence is the following:
- Define and initialize two points (p0 and p1) by using the Player::getDirectionFromScreen().
- Create an instance of the GameIntersection class to get the intersection point coordinates.
- Check, if there is an intersection with an obstacle. The Game::getIntersection() function returns an intersected obstacle when the obstacle appears in the area of the cylinder.
- After that GameIntersection instance gets the point of the nearest intersection point and you can get it by using the getPoint() function.

Sets a value that is used to scale frame duration. It scales up or down the speed of rendering, physics and game logic. This function can be used to create effects of slow/accelerated motion.

As for physics, in reality it will be simulated with the same fixed physics FPS, but the number of iterations will be two times higher. It is possible to scale the physics FPS separately via engine.physics.setScale() function.
This function scales the value set by the setIFps().
