Overview

MechaHamster implements the Firebase Remote Config API to allow for changes to program data after launch. Values are registered and stored on the Firebase Server, but can be changed through the Firebase Console, and published changes will be reflected next time the app is launched.

Code Locations

In Assets/Hamster/Scripts/MainGame.cs, remotely configurable values are assigned defaults on startup, and current values are downloaded from the server via FirebaseRemoteConfig.FetchAsync().

At runtime, scattered throughout the code, various values are retrieved via FirebaseRemoteConfig.GetValue() calls.

Viewing in the Console

From the Firebase Console, select your Firebase project, and click "Remote Config" from the menu on the left. This gives a list of all values that have been set up to be remotely configurable.

If you haven't set up any values yet, this list will be empty.

Here is a list of values that the game checks, as well as their default values:

Parameter Key	Value
`physics_gravity`	-20	The force of gravity in the game.
`acceleration_tile_force`	24	How fast acceleration-tiles push the player.
`sand_tile_drag`	5	The ammount of drag applied from quicksand tiles.
`jump_tile_velocity`	8	The vertical force applied by jump tiles.
`mine_tile_force`	10	The force applied by exploding mines.
`mine_tile_radius`	2	The explosion radius for exploding mines.
`mine_tile_upwards_mod`	0.2	The `upwardsModifier` on AddExplosionForce calls triggered by mines.
`spikes_tile_force`	10	The force applied when colliding with spikes.
`spikes_tile_radius`	1	The radius of the spike trigger zone.
`spikes_tile_upwards_mod`	-0.5	The `upwardsModifier` on AddExplosionForce calls triggered by spikes.
`VR_height_scale`	0.68	The vertical position of the camera, in VR mode.

Any keys that are unset will simply use the default values set in Assets/Hamster/Scripts/MainGame.cs
