I’m engaged on a web-based Web RPG sport (jRPG) with a map, that characters can go round.
Also, an essential half, is that every participant has his personal world and every participant can invite his buddies to play on the map collectively.
Almost any motion could be processed by a devoted server as nicely, apart from the character’s motion/animations, as a result of the server is written over WebSockets, which are utilizing TCP underneath the hood.
Actually, these actions could be processed with an overhead of bundle reliability.
But I assumed, what If I create a peer for every participant and use it together with an authoritative server?
And then, in a case, if one participant invitations the second participant to play collectively, then the second payer simply connects to the primary one utilizing p2p know-how.
But on the identical time, every motion, like setting a brand new prop on a map or opening a chest with a reward (that may be hidden within the forest) is processed by a devoted server (by means of the WebSockets)
So, the aim of p2p right here is to transmit not dependable(or too frequent) knowledge, similar to person’s actions(place)/animations/and many others.
Also, my opinion is that can work nice for hubs (some places, the place 16-32 random gamers can meet one another, like in No Man’s sky)
All appears excellent, apart from one factor:
I would like gamers to have the ability to transfer over the map(wish to WASD), however not to have the ability to
transfer by means of the objects (e.g. wallhack) So, if gamers enter a
dungeon, I wish to make certain, that they remedy a dungeon, however not
completed it by shifting by means of the partitions.
There is one other downside much like prev: Not permitting quick map exploration (e.g. velocity hack)
Is there any strategy to deal with this challenge with out processing participant actions(and different frequent unreliable knowledge) on the principle server for every replace tick?
I do know that p2p is for gamers that like to cheat as nicely, however in that case, I’ve an extra Authorative server that may approve/reject rather a lot, I simply don’t wish to make all of the stuff laggy on the principle server (if there will likely be a variety of messages per replace)
Btw. positions are solely utilized by the participant(dungeons, map exploration) or the group of gamers that play collectively, it is NOT an MMO, the place 1000’s of gamers can see one another.
As for me, it is ineffective to replace the participant every body or to make the sport an actual MMO, so there will likely be a way to replace all of the positions on the principle server.
P.S. I do know, If there will likely be no WASD, however mouse clicks then the motion path could be constructed utilizing the principle server. In this case, p2p will work as anticipated. But I actually wish to use a joystick on cell units to maneuver round.
