  • Choosing a networking library for my game
    8 projects | /r/rust_gamedev | 6 May 2022
    enet - Golden standard, tested and reliable - Not native rust - Does not seem to be popular in rust turbulence - Readme says it is not stable, but last meaningful commit was 1 year ago - Lacking documentation and examples - Not very popular laminar - Last meaningful release was 3 years ago (ignoring changes that fix typos etc.) - Despite this, everywhere (book, readme) there are mentions that it is under "active development" - Created for Amethyst, which is dead. I am kinda fearful that the same thing will happen to this lib. Tachyon - New and not tested in the battle - Many features that other libraries have planned, Tachyon actually has implemented - Lacking documentation (except for one big readme file), tests, examples Quinn - Big, under active development (daily commits), very popular because web development. - Modular, ability to just use core implemetation: quinn-proto - Do i really need TLS certificates and cryptography for my playing with friends game server? - Stream based, I would need to implement recv/send messages on top of it (not that hard tbh) - Only reliable stream and "unreliable" messages.

    laminar: networking library used with the amethyst game engine.
  • Crate to build network packets over UDP

    Maybe check out laminar and quinn, which implement custom protocols on top of UDP (quinn implements QUIC), to get an idea on how to do things.
  • UDP Rust Game Server?

    For the game packets I would suggest https://github.com/amethyst/laminar.
