Amethyst Networking

The networking crate for the amethyst game engine. This crate provides the API and functionality which application developers will normally use to develop multiplayer games. The main engine can be found at https://amethyst.rs.

This project is still at an early stage. We are currently designing and implementing a fast/robust networking system on top of specs. To exercise our implementation, we are creating a small test game which we will make public when we feel it's in a good place. Eventually, as we gain more confidence in our solution, we will move stable functionality over from that game to amethyst network.

Currently, amethyst network supports:

• Reliable (ordered, sequenced) UDP.
• Unreliable (sequenced) UDP.
• Connect/Disconnect events from clients.
• Automatic creation of NetConnection on client connect.
• Automatic Fragmentation of big packets

We use laminar as the application layer communication protocol.
