PROJECT: Multiplayer Chemistry Lab   (MVP)

The Objective: Validate network replication of complex chemical states in real-time. We needed to prove that fluid mixing logic stays synchronized across all clients without divergence.

The Scope (MVP): We prioritized network architecture over UI polish. The goal was to stress-test the interaction system before building the administrative backend.

  • Synchronized Physics: Ensured that pouring liquids and mixing reagents appeared identical for all users instantly.
  • Scenario Branching & Consequences: The simulation logic supports non-linear outcomes. Beyond correct procedures, we implemented destructive consequences for errors: broken funnels, chemical leaks, and safety breaches. These are visible to all users in real-time, teaching the team that one person's mistake endangers the entire group.
  • Role Logic: Hard-coded prototypes for "Teacher" and "Student" roles to test the pedagogical flow.
  • Voice & Presence: Integrated VoIP to verify that social presence creates a learning effect.

Status: Functional Engineering Build delivered to the client. The interface displays live debug telemetry (net-code stats), demonstrating the raw mechanics of the simulation in action.
