Riptide VS com.unity.multiplayer.samples.coop

if you wanted to setup a dedicated server I'd recommend Tom Weilands Small tutorial series on how to connect clients to a dedicated server using a solution called riptide, if you wanted to use your PC at the same time as clients connected I'd recommend looking at the unity demo in the github repository below aswell. https://youtu.be/6kWNZOFcFQw https://github.com/tom-weiland/RiptideNetworking

There is a package in Package Manager inside Unity Registry called Multiplayer HLAPI or use a low-level Networking API like RiptideNetworking it would be better else just use some other Networking API that you mentioned - Photon or Mirror I had experience with Photon I didn't use Mirror

Sadly I’m not personally aware of any tutorials for those networking systems but there’s a new open source networking library by Tom Weilandwhichhe’s making video tutorials about.

Have a look at https://www.photonengine.com/# Or the "new" built in thing from unity itself https://docs-multiplayer.unity3d.com/ (on the last link you find an example project "boss room" that shows how to implement multiplayer. When playing over the internet, you must "just" specify the correct host)

I'd recommend reading up on Unity's Multiplayer Networking: https://docs-multiplayer.unity3d.com/

We used dedicated servers from Unity, as outlined on Unity's official website https://docs-multiplayer.unity3d.com/

They have their code available here. I don't have any others, though. Hoping others will chime in on this thread with more!

URL: https://github.com/Unity-Technologies/com.unity.multiplayer.samples.coop.git?path=/Packages/com.unity.multiplayer.samples.coop#main I get this from unity netcode docs.

That's a question you should ask your programmers after they skimmed the documentation of multiplayer in Unity, not random people on the Internet.

Multiplayer is not directly part of the engine. Unity has their own services for multiplayer, but there is no rule that says you have to use it. In fact when I started most people where using Photon, because Unity didn't have their own service at the time.

You'd have to dig into the multiplayer offerings.

You could check out the Unity demo apps, like Boss Room. The newer demos from 2022 aren't on GitHub yet.
