Now we can finally deploy our schema and Replication Server on coherence Cloud.
In this example we're working with Worlds. Make sure you have created a World before trying to deploy the Replication Server. To create a World, follow the steps described in Manage Worlds.
The topics on this page start from around 1:00 in the video below:
In the coherence Hub window, select the coherence Cloud tab, and click on Upload to coherence Cloud in the Schemas section.
The status in the Schemas section should now be In Sync.
If the status does not say "In Sync", or if you encounter any other issues with the server interface, refer to the troubleshooting section.
Your project schema is now deployed with the correct version of the Replication Server already running in the cloud. You will be able to see this in your cloud dashboard status.
The Connect Dialog fetches all the regions available for your project. This depends on the project configuration (e.g., the regions that you have selected for your project in the Portal).
You can now build the project again and send the build to your friends for testing.
You will be able to play over the internet without worrying about firewalls and local network connections.
Before connecting, make sure everybody selects the same region, and that this region is not local.
For quick and easy testing, we suggest trying out the publish to WebGL option. Anyone with the link can then try the build in a browser.
Keep in mind to add the description of game controls though!
Now that we have tested our project locally, it's time to upload it to the cloud and share it with our friends and colleagues. To be able to do that, we need to create a free account with coherence.
In your web browser, navigate to https://coherence.io/dev.
Create an account or log into an existing one.
Open Unity and open the coherence Hub window. Then open the coherence Cloud tab.
After pressing Login you will be taken to the login page. Simply login as usual, and return to Unity.
You are now logged into the Portal through Unity. Select the correct Organization and Project, and you are ready to start creating.
coherence allows you to upload and share the builds of your games to your team, friends or adoring fans via an easy access play link.
Right now we support desktop (PC, Mac, Linux) and also WebGL, where you can host and instantly play your multiplayer game and share it around the world.
Build your game to a local folder on your desktop as you would normally.
In the coherence Hub window, select the coherence Cloud tab. You can upload your build from the Share Build section of the tab, select the platform (macOS, Linux, Window or WebGL are supported) and click on the Begin Upload button.
Now that build has been updated (signified by the green tick), you can share it by enabling and sharing the public URL. Anyone with this link can access the build.
If you uploaded a WebGL build, the public link allows for instant play.
