I just want force-feedback
Man-in-the-middling the netcode. From what I can tell, this would work ... but the packets are encrypted. It appears the netcode is largely based on this library, that they sponsor. There appear to be some differences from the "standard" but there are too many similarities to not have a common ancestor. I got pretty far on this, just to at least verify there was encryption. Even if it is not encrypted, it appears to be a custom protocol.

Why is client FPS limited by netcode?
You may not be there yet with your developer skills but if you are curious you can have a look at the netcode source code. I'm not sure if they're still using it since the switch to Lumberyard and Amazon Services but it's a really good and strong codebase: https://github.com/networkprotocol/netcode

Should I write my game server in C so that I can use the latest version of the netcode protocol?
I found that there is a relatively new protocol called netcode.io that provides UDP-like connection between client-server.

P2P vs Client Server
If you want to learn more about networking for game in C++, Glenn Fiedler has great articles from the basics to advanced topics: https://www.gafferongames.com/ He also created a library for client-server networking: https://github.com/networkprotocol/netcode (He has a big name in networking, totally recommend reading his articles if you want to learn more about networking)

Bespin ENet Options
So I'm thinking of either using this re-implemented, from C to Erlang, version of ENet https://github.com/archaelus/enet or using the original C version of ENet https://github.com/lsalzman/enet and connecting it using Erlang ports.
What are some alternatives?
