Can we get more information on Photon Quantum?

Moonstorm · October 2017

I saw a talk by the CTO a few months ago and I'm very curious to learn as much as you guy are willing to talk about RE: Photon Quantum. From what I know, it's going to be an RTS/MOBA specific catered solution built on top of your lockstep solution TrueSync. I'm extremely interested in learning more.

I have question too. When it will be costs 95$ or something, like ur other stuff? Or maybe even 20 CCU free?

All information of Quantum, which are publicly available, can be found on its product page.

Could you publish some roadmap about features you want to add in future? Or tell about these:
-LateJoin
-Reconnect
-3D colliders & raycasts

Hi guys,

I'm one of the core developers for Quantum here at Exit Games.

- Late joins are supported since version 1 (although we're currently making some API changes to make them easier to support from the developer perspective);
- Reconnects are supported out of the box;
- 3D colliders and raycasts are under internal beta tests now... They'll be released together with the new SDKs in the next weeks and months (we don't share ETAs);

Anything business related (as quantum is exclusive for teams who sign up), please send an inquiry to developer@photonengine.com.

About the other questions (sorry for the delay, I was warned of this topic today):

- Quantum is not based on the old TrueSync (although the fixed point math library evolved from the same original code base). Quantum is a completely different performance-focused implementation of a non-lockstepped predict/rollback simulator.

- There are no plans to make quantum a 20ccu free for now.

Even Bolt is not $95 and then free. This is for 100CCU only (just like PUN's 100 ccu tier). Photon products are always based on CCU.

Hi. Can we expect these features to appear this year?

Hi,

We released the Beta version of the quantum 3D physics engine a few months ago. The initial versions has:
- Transform3D and DynamicBody3D pre-built components;
- Box and Sphere primitive shapes;
- Static, Kinematic and Dynamic bodies;
- Raycasts, Linecasts, Shape overlaps;
- Layers, Triggers, etc
- Type safe collision callbacks.

We're about to release the production version of the physics engine (with next SDK 1.2.4) with the following new features:
- Mesh and Terrain colliders for static levels;
- Character Controller 3D (for FPS and TPS games);
- Raycast-based wheel colliders and Vehicle sample code;
- Restitution and Friction combine functions;

Can we get more information on Photon Quantum?
