Kbengine
KBEngine ist eine verteilte Game-Server-Engine und Backend-Infrastruktur, die für Massively Multiplayer Online-Umgebungen entwickelt wurde. Sie bietet eine Multi-Prozess-Architektur, um hohe Spieler-Gleichzeitigkeit und Echtzeit-Interaktionen innerhalb einer geteilten virtuellen Welt zu bewältigen.
Das System bietet ein skriptfähiges Game-Logic-Framework, das einen Hochleistungskern mit einer High-Level-Skriptsprache kombiniert. Dies ermöglicht Modifikationen des Spielverhaltens durch eine Hot-Fix-fähige Runtime, die Logik aktualisiert, ohne dass Server-Neustarts erforderlich sind.
Die Engine verwaltet die Server-Skalierung durch dynamisches Load-Balancing über mehrere Hardware-Knoten hinweg und stellt durch Echtzeit-Zustandssynchronisierung zwischen Server und Game-Clients eine konsistente Weltsicht sicher. Sie enthält zudem Mechanismen für die Persistenz von Spieldaten, wie z. B. geplante Entity-Backups und Server-State-Snapshotting.
Administrative Funktionen umfassen Live-Server-Debugging-Tools zur Überwachung des Systemstatus und zur Verwaltung von Server-Lebenszyklen.
Features
- Multiplayer Game Servers - Scalable engine for hosting authoritative game logic and managing real-time interactions for massive player concurrency.
- Distributed Socket Server Scaling - Scales real-time connections and workloads across multiple server instances to increase player capacity.
- Game State Synchronization Servers - Uses authoritative updates and event-based transmission to synchronize game state between the server and clients.
- Runtime Logic Hot-Updates - Supports updating game logic via scripts at runtime without requiring a full server restart.
- Distributed Processing - Implements a distributed processing architecture that scales server workloads across multiple processes and hardware nodes.
- Multi-Process Load Distribution - Utilizes a distributed multi-process architecture and dynamic load balancing to handle high player concurrency across hardware nodes.
- Distributed Game Backends - Implements a distributed game backend that scales capacity across multiple processes and hardware nodes.
- Game Logic Scripting - Provides a framework for defining custom interactive game behaviors and logic using scripting languages.
- World State Synchronization - Provides mechanisms to synchronize the global game world state across all connected clients to ensure consistency.
- Game State Synchronization - Synchronizes real-time game entity positions and actions across the network to ensure a consistent world view.
- Real-Time Multiplayer Frameworks - Provides the backend infrastructure necessary to handle high player concurrency in shared virtual environments.
- High Player Concurrency - Employs a distributed server architecture specifically designed to handle real-time interactions for massive numbers of simultaneous players.
- Hybrid Native and Scripting Runtimes - Combines a high-performance native core with a high-level scripting language for flexible game logic development.
- Hot-Swapping - Allows updating game behavior scripts in real-time without requiring server process restarts.
- Scheduled Database Backups - Implements scheduled database backups of entity data to prevent data loss across nodes.
- State Snapshots - Enables automatic or manual snapshots of the server state to protect against accidental data deletion.
- Entity Persistence - Saves entity data and creates system snapshots on a recurring schedule to prevent data loss.
