Adaptive Split Screen

This package contains a fast and lightweight solution for split screen. It is developed with DOTS in mind; as a result, it takes advantage of Unity’s latest technology stack, such as SIMD Mathematics and the Burst Compiler.

This is a novel split screen solution based on Voronoi diagrams. One can think of it as an extension of traditional dynamic split screen for up to 4 players.

Key Features:

• Fairness – an option for each player to have a similar screen region area.
• Centered – an option for each player to be centered in their screen region.
• Direction Indicated – each split indicates the direction to the other player.
• Fusible – players’ screen regions can be merged once they are close enough.

Note

Currently, 4-site balancing comes with the cost of continuity. Check the limitations section for more details.
