whiat should I use for my online game?

[midnight_on_mars]

Hello all, I’ve decided to add an optional online mode for my game and I’m looking for some guidance on what I should go with. It’s basically a turn based strategy/rpg so latency isn’t a big worry. It’s also 100% cooperative so I’m not worried about cheating.
Can anyone point me in the right direction as to what I should be looking into for my case? Thanks

This is a good starting point, where you will find a number of networking solutions with their pros and cons:

What are the pros and cons of available network solutions/assets

[EDIT 04/04/23] WARNING: This list hasn't been updated in a few years so a lot of information is missing and outdated. This is a simple list of the best solutions and assets and their pros and cons so that I (and others) can make the best choice for their multiplayer projects. Here's a link to a similar google doc where you can get more information on some of the solutions listed here, and general networking terms: https://docs.google.com/document/d/1ufcl6_ylbzthfmzzZ7HPiwDLR0sr1N3UAunUG9r…

Take some time to explore their websites, skim through their documentation and examples and you will find the best solution for your needs. Multiplayer is a complex matter which requires dedication before, during and after the coding part.
