Mid-match joiners now spawn a dedicated empty Spectator prefab (NetworkObject + SpectatorSetup only) instead of a fully stripped Player prefab. The FreeCam rig is a standalone scene object in Main, so the spectator needs no avatar body, renderer, collider, or CharacterController -- eliminating the leftover-body artifact and the fragile per-peer strip path entirely. - SpectatorSetup.cs (new): owner binds GameModeManager.BindSpectator (FreeCam-only) - Spectator.prefab (new): empty avatar (Transform + NetworkObject + SpectatorSetup), registered in DefaultNetworkPrefabs, wired on MatchManager in Main - GameModeManager: add BindSpectator/BuildSpectatorModes; drop the spectator branch from BindLocalPlayer; ReleaseToNoPlayer frees the cursor on teardown - MatchManager: independent entropy-seeded RNG for fair hunter pick (was sharing the global engine RNG and always landing on the same client); spawn the spectator prefab for mid-match joiners; cursor-safe return-to-Main teardown - FreeCamController: guard IgnorePlayerCollision against a disabled capsule Also bundled (unrelated user asset/UI edits): PaintHudPanel layout tuning, font atlas (arialroundedmtprocyr_bold SDF), forestpack_foliage material.

Chameleon
A Unity mesh-painting game inspired by Meccha Chameleon — not a 1:1 clone. You paint your character directly on its 3D mesh to blend into the environment, and move with an extended traversal kit (run, jump, slope-slide, wall-climb).
Status: early prototype. Core painting and movement work; the hide-and-seek game loop (roles, rounds, scoring, multiplayer) is not built yet.
Features so far
- Seamless mesh painting straight onto the character's 3D mesh (GPU + CPU path, edge-dilation against seams).
- Third-person character controller — camera-relative WASD, jump, gravity, slope-sliding off too-steep surfaces, hold-to-sprint and acceleration/deceleration for smooth ramp-up and roll-out.
- Wall-climb + mantle — climb walls/ceilings (W approach/up, S detach, A/D sideways) and pull up over top edges (or hop over slope tops) instead of dropping.
- Cinemachine orbit camera — mouse look, interpolated scroll zoom, smoothed orbit rotation, collision deocclusion.
- Animator hookup — drives a
Runningbool while moving on the ground. - Game mode manager — extensible state machine, switch with Tab:
- Player Control — move + mouse look.
- Paint — no movement, left-click paints, hold right-click to orbit.
Controls
| Input | Action |
|---|---|
| WASD | Move (camera-relative) |
| Shift (hold) | Sprint |
| Space | Jump |
| Mouse | Look / orbit camera |
| Mouse wheel | Zoom |
| Left click | Paint (Paint mode) |
| Tab | Switch mode (Player Control ⇄ Paint) |
Getting started
- Open the project with Unity 6000.3.11f1 (Unity 6).
- Open
Assets/Scenes/SampleScene.unity. - Press Play, move with WASD, press Tab to switch to Paint mode and paint.
Cinemachine (com.unity.cinemachine) and the Input System are resolved
automatically via the package manifest.
