Player Panel & Theme
The panel is the interface security staff use to see and manage every player. It's built in the Editor by BS_BouncerUI's custom Inspector, and its colors are driven by a shared BS_ConfigUI script.
The Panel
- A live list of every tracked player, each shown as a card with their name, platform (VR or DESKTOP), a verified indicator and a security indicator. Both indicators can be toggled by another security player.
- Two sort modes: alphabetical, or newest-joined first. This is a personal preference — it only changes what you see, not anyone else's panel — and the current mode is shown as a label ("Alphabetical" / "Join Time"). Only security players can change it.
- A security toggle element that shows while the gate is on.
- Updates automatically as players join, leave or have their state changed by anyone.
- You can't change your own security level, a Permanent security player can't be demoted from the panel, and a Temporary security player can't remove another temporary player's privileges.
Theme Colors
BS_ConfigUI holds only five colors — it's a pure value holder with no UI elements of its own:
| Color | Purpose |
|---|---|
| Primary Color | Main accent color. |
| Secondary Color | Secondary accent color. |
| Background Color | Base panel background. |
| Border Color | Panel and card borders. |
| Theme Color | A per-world accent color, meant to be the one you change to match your world's own look — the other four are fixed structural colors. |
Every visible element that uses these colors is wired up on the component that actually displays it. Each of these has its own five lists — Primary / Secondary / Background / Border / Theme Color Elements:
BS_BouncerUI— the panel's own background, borders and headers.BS_PlayerUI— each player card. These lists are set on the player card prefab (playerCard), so every card built from it gets them.
Drag each Image or TextMeshPro text into the list for the color it should use.
Make sure each color's alpha is 255. A color with alpha 0 makes every element wired to it fully transparent.
Changing a color on BS_ConfigUI updates every linked panel, and every player card on it, immediately in the Unity Editor — no need to enter Play mode. This usually happens automatically as you edit, but not every way of changing a color (notably dragging in the color picker window) reliably triggers it. BS_ConfigUI's Inspector has an Apply Colors button for exactly this case — click it and every color is force-applied across every linked panel and its cards.
Multiple Panels
A world can have more than one Bouncer panel — for example, one at the front desk and one backstage — all fully in sync, visually and live.
Registering a Panel
- Build or place your panel — a GameObject with
BS_BouncerUIon it (copy the included one, or build your own). - Select the GameObject holding
BS_BouncerSystem. - In its Inspector, find the Bouncer Panels list and increase its size by one.
- Drag the panel's GameObject (the one holding
BS_BouncerUI) into the new slot.
That's all the setup a panel needs. Everything else is pushed in automatically:
- Theme. The shared
BS_ConfigUIis set once, in the Config UI field onBS_BouncerSystem— not on each panel. Editing a color updates every panel in the list. - Live player list & toggles. The current list is pushed to every panel the moment anything changes, whichever panel (or join, leave or name list) caused it.
A panel left off the Bouncer Panels list gets nothing — no theme, no player list, and no live updates, not even after clicking its own toggles.
