> The story is similar for networking. Ultimately we will have a built in api, but we're focused on more fundamental things at the moment. There are _tons_ of community-developed networking plugins though: https://bevyengine.org/assets/#networking
That is, we do definitely want to make multiplayer work properly, and our data design should give us inherent advantages here. But it hasn't been a priority so far, as we've had other more pressing requirements (e.g. animation this release).
But a lot of what you want should in the medium term be provided by external crates; our use of systems as the unit of logic should make this viable, as behaviour implemented by the engine is not special. These external crates could potentially be made official if that made sense, but that's for much longer time scales.

I can tell you right now that there’s an entire channel in the Bevy discord server dedicated to making an out of the box api for multiplayer. If you want the current state of it, check out this RFC. https://github.com/bevyengine/rfcs/pull/19 I’m really excited for it when it eventually comes out.
I spent quite a few hours working on an example of Bevy 0.5 and Tokio for multiplayer backend server.
