multiplayer

I'm trying to make a "FourConnect"-game with javascript. I want, that there is a list from all online users. This list I've made with the example on the firebase site. Now I want that I can choose one online user and send them a invitation to play with me. So I wrote a function, that all users expect of me have an additional div. When I click on the div this special user should get a confirm box to say okey or cancel. If the user clicks okey the play should begin. I'll save the name and the id from the user. This already works. My problem is, that I don't know how to send the request to the

I'm interested in building a small real-time multiplayer game, using HTML5/JavaScript for the client and probably Java for the server software. I looked into WebSockets a bit, but it appears I had misconceptions on what WebSockets actually are. I had initially thought of WebSockets as just JavaScript's way of handling TCP sockets, just as they are used in Java and other languages, but it appears there is a whole handshaking process that must take place, and each transmission includes much HTTP overhead (and in that case, the benefits over Ajax do not seem as exciting as at a first glance)?

What is the best way, if any, to use Apple's new ARKit with multiple users/devices? It seems that each devices gets its own scene understanding individually. My best guess so far is to use raw features points positions and try to match them across devices to glue together the different points of views since ARKit doesn't offer any absolute referential reference. ===Edit1, Things I've tried=== 1) Feature points I've played around and with the exposed raw features points and I'm now convinced that in their current state they are a dead end: they are not raw feature points, they only expose

I saw Unity's Multiplayer service page , and I'm completely confused: Can I use Unity's high-level networking API (NetworkManager / NetworkManagerHUD) in a published game without paying for Unity Matchmaker and the Relay servers (whatever those are)? I have my own cloud-based VM that I want to run a dedicated server on. My project is just a small game I would play with my friends (nothing commercial or large-scale). I want to run a published copy of that game in dedicated server mode on my VM, and have my friends run their published client copy and connect to the server via the NetworkManager.
