Description
This well documented, advanced, online-multiplayer template allows for absolute responsive controls/kills/sounds. Creating identical gameplay experiences for every connected player unlike the official multiplayer examples.
This networking scenario is recommended for co-op multiplayer games such as Terraria, Don't Starve Together or Diablo style games, and puts the player experience up front. It is not recommended for PvP setups!
No rubber-banding and no control/kill delays for the controlled character.

Arcade Demo
The arcade demo does not include any chat or char name selection features, due to arcade restrictions. The arcade demo also automatically resets if the Host can't keep up, and limits the amount of AI that can be spawned. There's also no camera system. These limits are not existent in the purchase.
