BOLT is the State-of-the-Art
Networking Solution for Unity
Build FPS, TPS and Action Games as
Dedicated Server Games.
Supported Platforms
The Perfect Engine for
Authoritative Server Games
FPS/TPS
Authoritative TPS/FPS
are the core target for BOLT.
Needs to be combined with an orchestration solution like Gamelift or Multiplay.
Battle Royale
Up to 40-50 players
this is out of the box.
Large player #s (> 50) are a challenge and require special skills with scoping.
Action Games
Authoritative action games
where the Unity Engine needs to
be available in the host.
It is worth to consider other architectures/approaches that make Unity on the server obsolete.
BOLT was inspired by several influential papers that has been written about online multiplayer (you can find a link to the papers in our documentation).
- Tribes Networking
- Halo Reach Networking
- Source Engine Multiplayer Networking
Support of Four Main
Scenarios & Architectures
Support of Four Main
Scenarios & Architectures
DedicatedServer
The server is dedicated and has a public IP (less connection problems with best security options).
- Photon Cloud does not offer to host Unity Instances. Possible solutions are Gamelift (by Amazon), Multiplay (by Unity) or custom solutions.
- Uses Unity on the server, potential stability / memory / CPU issues.
- Best practice for Fortnite, Halo, …
Listen Server
or Client Hosted
One of the clients hosts the game, to minimize operational costs. Has its Pros and Cons.
- QoS may be a challenge: Host may drop-out (host migration)
- Relayed clients have a 4 hops (client-relay-host => host-relay-client)
- Professional solution is a dedicated server.
Two Player
Peer-2-Peer
Direct (p2p) connection with NAT punchthrough and a relay as fallback.
- No host migration necessary. The game ends when one player drops.
- Client cheat detection needed.
Local LAN / Wifi
A Listen Server for a LAN / Wifi with automatic host detection.
- Punch works.
- Local connection = very low latency
- Simple matchmaking
