Reloaded II's extensible "event-like" solution for passing messages across a local or remote network that sits ontop of LiteNetLib.

Reloaded II: Networking Module

Assert.Equal(funnyMessage, Dio)

Introduction

Reloaded.Networking is library that adds support for simple, high performance message packing to existing networking libraries.

Specifically, it provides a minimal framework for performing the following tasks:

• Asynchronous message processing for external networking libraries.
• Sending/Receiving messages with (de)serialization and [optional] (de)compression.
• Automatically dispatching messages to appropriate handlers (per message type).

It was originally created for Reloaded II, however has been extended in the hope of becoming a more general purpose library.

This library is heavily optimized for achieving high throughput for messages < 128KB.

Characteristics

• High performance. (Memory pooling, allocation free).
• Low networking overhead.
• Custom serializer/compressor per class type.
• Simple message packing/protocol.
• 1 byte overhead for uncompressed, 5 bytes for compressed.
• Unsafe.
