Josh Posted January 8, 2017 Posted January 8, 2017 I recommend using C++ and the RakNet library for this. Note that networking is an advanced subject! Quote My job is to make tools you love, with the features you want, and performance you can't live without.
jvwjgames Posted January 8, 2017 Author Posted January 8, 2017 Ok thanks for your quick response also is there a tutorial on how to integrate Raknet with leadwerks? Quote
Josh Posted January 8, 2017 Posted January 8, 2017 Nope. it is not easy! I plan to add built-in networking support later on, but I can't tell you how to use RakNet. Quote My job is to make tools you love, with the features you want, and performance you can't live without.
gamecreator Posted January 8, 2017 Posted January 8, 2017 I assume Steam networking works on Linux too. If so, this may be something you want to take a look at: http://www.leadwerks.com/werkspace/topic/9663-introduction-to-steam-code-in-leadwerks/ Edit: I didn't see that you wanted to use Lua, which I don't believe lets you use Steam.

Thirsty Panther Posted January 8, 2017 Posted January 8, 2017 There are some old on this subject. I haven't used them so I don't know how good they are but they might help. Quote
gamecreator Posted January 8, 2017 Posted January 8, 2017 Not sure if the subject was changed but I guess OP is using Lua not C. 1 Quote
