Recorder

The recorders capture drive positions and position/orientation of moveable units (MUs). This is helpful when these parameters are controlled by connected PLCs. Recording allows for playback of the sequence without PLC connection. For drive tracking, free navigation in the recording is possible, but for MUs, this feature will be added in a future release.

Drives Recorder

The Drive Recorder is a feature that records the position of a drive during runtime in GameMode. To use the Drive Recorder, you need to attach the “DrivesRecorder” component to a GameObject. You can choose to record all drives in the hierarchy below the game object where you added the recorder component or all drives within the scene.

In addition to the DrivesRecorder component, you need to create a ScriptableObject DrivesRecording. Right mouse click in the folder where your scene is located. The image below illustrates how to create the DrivesRecording object.

The DrivesRecorder provides the following attributes:

Attribute	Function
Drives Recording	Recording object which stores the record
Record all drives within the scene	boolean wether all drives in the scene should be recorded
Recording / Replaying	Information which mode is currently active
Replay Start Frame	Frame at which the replay starts
Replay End Frame	Frame at which the replay ends
Loop	loops the current replay
Record On Start	boolean: true -> record starts with the start of the game mode
Play On Start	boolean: true -> replay starts with the start of the game mode
Current Frame/ Number Frames/ Current Seconds/ Duration	Information about the current the current recording or replay
Jump To Position	jump to a certain frame
Replay End	subscribe an event which is called when the replay ends
Buttons	the buttons are used during runtime to start and stop the recording or the replay

Mu Recorder

The MUrecorder is a tool that captures the location and orientation of MUs (Mobile Units) in a scene. It automatically starts recording when the runtime mode is initiated, and it captures MUs that are already present in the scene as well as those that are created by sources during runtime.

To utilize the MUrecorder, the MUrecording component must be added to all sources that require MUs to be recorded. Additionally, an instance of the scriptable object MUrecording must be created and assigned to the MUrecording component. The image below illustrates the process of creating the MUrecording in the project.

The MUrecorder provides the following attributes:

Attribute	Function
MUrecording	Recording object which stores the record
Record	boolean: true -> Recording is active
Replay	boolean: true -> Replay is active
Is Recording/ Is Replaying	Information which mode is currently active
