Mirror - Can't Connect to my Own Server

A while back, I had no problem hosting and connecting to my own server using two instances of my game on the same computer. I use "localhost" as the IP. All of a sudden, when I try to connect to my own server I get this message:


Client Recv: failed to connect to ip=localhost port=7777 reason=System.Net.Sockets.SocketException (0x80004005): No connection could be made because the target machine actively refused it.

Why is this and how do I fix it?

What do you guys know about making Bluetooth work with android tablets for networking a simple game in 2020?

The closest thing I could find was this repo:

https://github.com/javierfoe/Multiplayer-Bluetooth-Unity


which appears to take an abandon paid plugin, and combines it with Mirror and something called ignorance?

Sounds like I'm going to run into a lot of trouble learning 3 new things to make this work? Is there a reason we don't have a Bluetooth solution? is this somehow...

Hello there,

I am about to create my first multiplayer game, never did it before. I am using MLAPI, the games can be hosted locally and joined with other players easily. But how do I proceed with the same thing online?

I want to create/host a game, give it a name, player limit, etc, then wait for others to join. But how do others can see my game? Do I use a database to achieve this? I have a lot of experience with Firebase. So when i share a game, what do I share? ip? port?

Hi guys,
I am about to finish my master of informatics and I wanted to use my last semester break to think about how you would approach developing an online multiplayer game. While I definitely do not want to develop an MMO and invest my next 5 years into such a large project, I still find it very interesting to think about how you would approach building such a system. Unfortunately, during my studies I mainly focused on machine learning, AI and stuff like that and therefore I have very...

Camera issues with Mirror multiplayer

Hello,

I am using the Mirror extension and experimenting with a multiplayer FPS style game. The NetworkManager auto spawns a player prefab when someone joins the game. The player prefab his children transforms most notably a camera.

When client 1 starts a new server and spawns in using the player prefab everything works great. The first person camera works and the controls are great!

However, when client 2 joins the game client 1 is hosting, client 1's view becomes client 2's view. Client...

hasAuthority returns false on host after using SpawnWithClientAuthority.

Code (CSharp):
  1. private void OnServerAddPlayer(NetworkConnection networkConnection, short controllerId)
  2. {
  3.     var go = (GameObject)Instantiate(_vehicle, _spawnPoint.position, _spawnPoint.rotation);
  4.     NetworkServer.SpawnWithClientAuthority(go, networkConnection);
  5. }
So "hasAuthority" on that new gameobject is always false on host, but true on clients connected to the host.
I know that this is an expected behavior as stated in http://docs.unity3d.com/Manual/UNetSpawning.html...

Hello - I was curious if there is interest in a development log as I embark upon a multiplayer game using Facepunch.Steamworks in Unity 2019.

You can find the beginnings of test code for a client and server here: https://github.com/Facepunch/Facepunch.Steamworks/issues/349 along with some of my initial issues (development-wise, not emotional, we don't have all day :)).

I solved the issue I brought up, if there is enough interest I can start or continue this thread as a true...

Hello All,
I have 4 players joining on a local lan network. My player camera is orthographic. Player controls are disabled. Each player is spawn at a fixed distance from each other. Say for example player 1 is spawned at (-10, 0,0), player 2 is spawned at (0,0,0), player 3 is spawned at (10,0,0), player 4 is spawned at (20,0,0).

Hey guys! I'm quite new to unity networking. I just had a quick question if anyone has any knowledge to drop me i would greatly appreciate it!

So i'm creating a multiplayer action type game. My preferred network solution for unity has long been photon. But ive decided to check in on other solutions(especially free ones) MLAPI seems to be a good choice. But i'm a little perplexed on its use.

I'm wanting to create dedicated servers that players can connect to, search for matches and play...

Hi!,

I'm developing web based Virtual world game like "Club Penguin".
I've been developed my game for 3 Months and its going very well, but lately I've been started to find that Mirror is less effective for my project.
For example switching scenes (Rooms), Its Impossible to switch scenes without switching to all the active Clients.


I thought about switch from Mirror to other service,
Currently I'm using PlayFab to store players data.

I thought about switching to Photon / SmartFoxServer...

Making multiplayer games in Unity 2019.3

Good day
I recently installed unity 2019.3 and I was going to use it to develop a multiplayer game, however I saw that there is no network manager or network transform component or all the previous components that worked with uNet. I did some research on it and discovered that unity is moving away from using uNet and now their working on Connected Games.
My question is, How are we now supposed to develop multiplayer games in unity 2019.3 seeing as Connected Games hasn't been released yet?...

Hi, I work on an object equipping system for my multiplayer game. I did the wearing part and other stuff but when it come to multiplayer I screwed up. I change the current worn objects from the player prefab with a script and that causes everybody look same in your view. All other players looks they've worn the same objects you choose. I know I have to do some networking stuff inside the script but I don't know what to do. As you can see in the images I sent, the blue player had to wear the...
