Connecting Unity Clients to a Dedicated Server | C# Networking Tutorial - Part 1

[@tomweiland]

As I was editing this, I felt like there were some things that I could have explained a little better. This is my first tutorial and I'm always learning, so I'll do my best to explain things in more detail in the future. If you guys have any feedback regarding the video, please let me know 👇

Please don't randomly stop uploading these videos. You see a lot of tutorials where they just stop without warning. Good video.

[@tomweiland]

Yeah I've seen my fair share of those. I definitely plan on continuing this series-in fact I'm editing part two right now :)

[@MintAIO]

@@tomweiland do you know any resources that I can read more about how all of this actually works?

[@tomweiland]

@@MintAIO apart from the Microsoft docs, I'm not aware of any good written resources, and unfortunately the docs really only explain the what, not the why. I personally learned how this stuff works by watching tutorial videos like the ones I'm making now, and then playing around and working with it for the last (almost) 2 years. I'd encourage you to join my Discord server (link in description). You can ask questions there and we can have a more efficient conversation than here in the comments section :)

First and foremost, thanks a lot for this networking tutorial.

Awesome tutorial! Thank you. I would like to suggest you to set your font size larger when you are recording tutorials. It's not easy to read your code in 720p or a small screen :D

[@tomweiland]

Other people suggested the same thing, and in later tutorials I increased the code size. In the most recent tutorial, I forgot to do so when I was recording, so I ended up just zooming in on the areas of interest, which I think is the best solution. The only drawback is that it takes more time to edit, but let me know what you think of that when you get there :)

@@thegamerjoshua2848 I played with this and it was actually more difficult than I thought. You can double click on the script in the asset viewer. This will open it in VScode, or maybe monoDevelop. Then use the "save as" function in the program and exit the program. When you get back to Unity a new script with you new name should appear in the asset viewer. You can then delete the old script and attach the new script to what ever game objects you like. Maybe I'm wrong but I found no way to right click or double click or edit the name directly in Unity in any way.

Thanks for the tutorial! I have one question: Wouldn't a UDP connection be preferrable to a TCP connection, specifically when writing the server for a game? Edit:// just saw part 3, I should probably watch more before asking x)

[@tomweiland]

Hahaha well it's still a valid question. The reason we use both TCP and UDP is because at some point you're going to need to send messages which won't get lost-that's what TCP is for. When it doesn't really matter if all the packets arrive, UDP is great because it's slightly faster.

If you are on Visual Studio 2019 with all of the installed stuff that you need. Then just go in the console and click "Run" or start it will show a green play button, so just click on that to start/run the code.

[@borisnliscool]

I must say, this was a bit fast for me. I had to pause it like a bajilion times. But still, nice video!

[@tomweiland]

Thanks! I figured that since it's a tutorial, you'd be pausing a lot anyways (at least that's what I do when I'm watching tutorials), so a bit of extra speed wouldn't be a problem. It keeps the videos at a more manageable length, and keep in mind you can change the playback speed to something like 0.5x :)

Hello, I know that this tutorial is outdated but is it still posible to use this if I am just making a game that is LAN based since I have a school project that is asking me to not use the server stuff pre built into unity and I do not know how to connect a python server to unity since I have not learned that language yet

[@tomweiland]

This should still work, yes, but it was always messy and somewhat buggy. _"asking me to not use the server stuff pre built into unity"_ If you're referring to Riptide, that isn't "pre built into Unity." In fact it is not dependent on Unity in any way and you can just as well use it in a regular console app. _"I do not know how to connect a python server to unity since I have not learned that language yet"_ Then I'm not sure how using this series helps...Unity uses C# and this tutorial/solution uses C# too.

one of the best tutorials on the subject. my wish would be an advanced tutorial on individual areas. eg how to do the server search, or the lobby with chat / game start and co. i'm pretty sure that this channel will get a lot more growth ;-)

[@tomweiland]

Thank you :) Believe it or not, those topics you listed aren't actually that advanced. I'm not saying you're dumb or anything, but once you get into the "multiplayer mindset" things like that become just as straightforward as singleplayer game mechanics. Debugging is always a little trickier because there's more places where things can go wrong, but as you get used to working with a multiplayer solution like this one, you'll start to wonder why you thought these things seemed so complicated. Just stick with it!

Hi I have a question, I am on mac and how should i run the server like you did at 7:10

[@tomweiland]

There should be a green play button at the top of the Visual Studio window. In the video I think I pressed F5, not sure if that works on Mac though. If that doesn't work, just google how to run an application in VS on Mac.

[@rosapink2390]

This was awesome! I was able to learn, C# server creation, connection with client, Singleton Pattern and basic Unity UI. I like the way you explain. Like say exactly whats reading in the code with some comments on the idea of what is actually happening.

Thanks, I'm glad you like it!

Dani Talked about you are just awesome bro....awesome tut....

[@tomweiland]

Indeed he did-I'm glad you liked it :P

[7:11] I missed to check "Allow private networks" when I rin the code. And There is not any Security alert window in the second time when I run the code. Can you tell me how to solve this issue?

[@tomweiland]

You'll have to go into your settings and manually allow the server/client through the firewall.

I am pretty young but your video still helped me soooo much and i understood everything very clearly. thank you :D

Glad I could help :)

In my opinion this ist the best Tutorial about Networking on KZbin. The structure of the project is also clear and easy to follow. But I'd like to know how many clients can this server handle at the same time? Is there a limit for the number of clients that can connect at the same time?

[@tomweiland]

If you like this one, you should really check out my new series-this series here isn't very good, and the code we write in it is a straight up mess 😅 Neither this solution nor Riptide (the solution I cover in the new series) imposes any arbitrary connection limits like Photon does for example. Although the maximum number of players you'll be able to support with a single server instance depends heavily on your game and how resource intensive it is, Riptide is much more performant than the solution from these videos, so that'll be able to support even more players.

do you know what: CS1501 C# No overload for method 'Copy' takes 4 arguments it is my only error in my project pls help

[@tomweiland]

You're trying to pass 4 variables to the Copy method when you should be passing just 3. There are overloads that take 4 parameters, but apparently your types don't match up.

[@rezamoeini9657]

Its amazing!! Short and useful!

[@tomweiland]

And a little too fast 😅

Check your for loops and make sure they all match

okay, thanks :)

Content quality 100% , but set speed to 0.75 at times you go so blazing quick man. Any company should pay you triple the wage for that working speed haha. Good job

[@tomweiland]

Yeah sorry about the speed-the later videos are a bit better in that regard. Glad you liked it :)

Hello Tom, I had a question how did you get the project template for visual studio 2019? Because I am not able to find it I also asked in ur discord server thanks

[@tomweiland]

Pretty sure it was installed for me by default, but according to this (docs.microsoft.com/en-us/dotnet/core/tutorials/with-visual-studio) you need the .NET Core cross-platform development workload installed.

[@PatriotZest]

@@tomweiland thanks man, also how do you get the wpf app? thanks for the fast reply! :D
