Adds NetworkJobQueue and NetworkJobWorker nodes and an example. The idea is to sync the queue so that it can be processed the same across all clients.
This can be useful for Matchmaking (queuing requests), Crafting systems (queuing time based crafting), strategy game commands (queuing player commands), AI NPC actions (queueing NPC actions) etc
The PR doesn't currently work as the
queuevalue in the RollbackSynchronizer isn't sending its data to other clients.It's starting to look like the actual queue functionality may not belong as part of netfox as the netcode part is purely the syncing of the queue which could just be done with a rollback synchronizer.
The example game however, may be useful as a separate repo?
