Testing multiplayer games

I’m still very new to unity, and so far I have run my game with the normal ‘play’ button in the editor. Now that I have to start incorporating multiplayer, I am wondering if there is a way to run a client/host and then another client on the same machine, so I can see what is happening on both clients as the game progresses.

You can definitely do that. The usual way is to launch a standalone build via Build & Run for one client and then play from the editor for the second client.

Agree, and you should test the editor as server and also as client, sometimes errors only show up on the client (for example if you try to run a command on the client etc.)

Hey guys, I’ve tested using a local host and an editor client and curious what the next step. Are there any tutorials for testing it over a real network? Thank you.
