LiteNetLib based transport for Mirror.

Usage

  1. Download the unitypackge from releases and import it to your project (it does not contain Mirror)
  2. Put LiteNetLib4MirrorTransport component on gameobject with NetworkManager and assign it there
  3. (Optional) Make your NetworkManager derrive from LiteNetLib4MirrorNetworkManager and use optional overloads from it

  • Ordered but unreliable with duplication prevention
  • Simple UDP packets without order and reliability
  • Automatic small packets merging
  • Automatic fragmentation of reliable packets
  • Automatic MTU detection

  • Packet loss and latency simulation
  • IPv6 support (dual mode)
