Property Descriptions

PackedStringArray handshake_headers = PackedStringArray()

The extra headers to use during handshake. See WebSocketPeer.handshake_headers for more details.

float handshake_timeout = 3.0

  • void set_handshake_timeout ( float value )

  • float get_handshake_timeout ( )

The maximum time each peer can stay in a connecting state before being dropped.

int inbound_buffer_size = 65535

  • void set_inbound_buffer_size ( int value )

  • int get_inbound_buffer_size ( )

The inbound buffer size for connected peers. See WebSocketPeer.inbound_buffer_size for more details.

int max_queued_packets = 2048

  • void set_max_queued_packets ( int value )

  • int get_max_queued_packets ( )

The maximum number of queued packets for connected peers. See WebSocketPeer.max_queued_packets for more details.

int outbound_buffer_size = 65535

  • void set_outbound_buffer_size ( int value )

  • int get_outbound_buffer_size ( )

The outbound buffer size for connected peers. See WebSocketPeer.outbound_buffer_size for more details.

PackedStringArray supported_protocols = PackedStringArray()

The supported WebSocket sub-protocols. See WebSocketPeer.supported_protocols for more details.

Method Descriptions

Error create_client ( String url, TLSOptions tls_client_options=null )

Starts a new multiplayer client connecting to the given url. TLS certificates will be verified against the hostname when connecting using the wss:// protocol. You can pass the optional tls_client_options parameter to customize the trusted certification authorities, or disable the common name verification. See TLSOptions.client and TLSOptions.client_unsafe.

Note: It is recommended to specify the scheme part of the URL, i.e. the url should start with either ws:// or wss://.

Error create_server ( int port, String bind_address="*", TLSOptions tls_server_options=null )

Starts a new multiplayer server listening on the given port. You can optionally specify a bind_address, and provide valid tls_server_options to use TLS. See TLSOptions.server.

WebSocketPeer get_peer ( int peer_id ) const

Returns the WebSocketPeer associated to the given peer_id.

String get_peer_address ( int id ) const

Returns the IP address of the given peer.

int get_peer_port ( int id ) const

Returns the remote port of the given peer.
