BabylonJS + Colyseus Multiplayer Boilerplate UPDATED

[inteja]

@endel has just updated his BabylonJS + Colyseus Multiplayer Boilerplate repository to support the latest BabylonJS, Colyseus, Node.js, TypeScript, Webpack and related dependencies.

It's a great starting point for anyone interested in developing multiplayer games or multiuser applications with BabylonJS.

Here's more information:

• BabylonJS + Colyseus Multiplayer Boilerplate
• Colyseus website
• Colyseus documentation
• Support Endel via his Patreon campaign

hello!

That is great, but I don't see any multi-player thing happening when I go on the live demo...

I was expecting something like that:

https://developer.playcanvas.com/en/tutorials/legacy/advanced/real-time-multiplayer/

Where you can open several tabs and control several capsules.

@Nodragem you can open the console and open a new tab. you will see an entry that a new player joined, but that's all it does in the live demo, I think.

@Nodragem yes it's only a basic boilerplate to get node.js, babylon, colyseus and related dependencies setup for multi-player. A decent starting point for any multi-player 3D game. The rest is up to you.

On the Colyseus site and Github repositories there's various examples showing how to use Colyseus for multiplayer games and chat, but none of these use Babylon at present.

I'm sure @endel would welcome pull requests to the BabylonJS + Colyseus Multiplayer Boilerplate if anyone wanted to flesh it out more to say a simple game of tic tac toe or checkers or something.
