Hi @jiabuda, I'm glad you're enjoying it and using it for your second game!
You're right about the Context. By default the @type() annotation is going to use a "global context". By having all structures inside the global context, they're all going to be synched during handshake.
I'm restructuring most of @colyseus/schema lately, and I'm going to add a utility to help with this, as follows:
import { type, Context, DefinitionType } from "@colyseus/schema";
function createContext() {
const context = new Context();
return function (definition: DefinitionType) {
return type(definition, context);
}
}
You can use this function to generate a special @type() that is going to bind to a specific context, so you can use a different one for each of your games. Example:
// "game1.ts"
export const type = createContext();
// other file
import { type } from "./game1";
class State extends Schema {
@type("string") // ... your definitions as usual
}
This utility is going to be available as Context.create() on a next version!
Hope this helps. Cheers!
