Unity Multiplayer & Networking

Multiplayer Architecture Overview

Unity's multiplayer ecosystem comprises several layers:

LayerPackage/ServicePurpose
High-LevelNetcode for GameObjectsGameObject-based networking logic
High-LevelNetcode for EntitiesDOTS-based networking
Low-LevelUnity Transport (com.unity.transport)UDP/WebSocket communication with optional reliability, ordering, fragmentation
ServicesRelayNAT traversal via cloud relay servers
ServicesLobbyMatchmaking and session discovery
ServicesSessions SDKPlayer group management
ToolsMultiplayer Play ModeSimulate up to 4 players in-editor
ToolsMultiplayer ToolsAnalysis, debugging, testing utilities

Topology options:

  • Client-Server (Dedicated): Server has authority; clients send inputs, server validates
  • Client-Server (Listen/Host): One player acts as both server and client
  • Distributed Authority: Ownership-based authority distributed among clients

Use the Multiplayer Center (Window > Multiplayer > Multiplayer Center) to get package recommendations based on your game's needs.

Netcode for GameObjects Setup

Installation

Install com.unity.netcode.gameobjects (v2.10+) via Package Manager. This automatically pulls in com.unity.transport.

NetworkManager Configuration

Add a NetworkManager component to a GameObject in your scene. It is the singleton entry point for all networking.

using Unity.Netcode;

public class GameLauncher : MonoBehaviour
{
    public void StartAsHost()
    {
        NetworkManager.Singleton.StartHost();
    }

    public void StartAsServer()
    {
        NetworkManager.Singleton.StartServer();
    }

    public void StartAsClient()
    {
        NetworkManager.Singleton.StartClient();
    }

    public void Shutdown()
    {
        NetworkManager.Singleton.Shutdown();
    }
}

Key NetworkManager properties:

  • IsServer, IsClient, IsHost -- execution context
  • ConnectedClients -- dictionary of connected clients
  • ConnectedClientsIds -- read-only list of client IDs
  • LocalClientId -- local client's ID
  • SceneManager -- NetworkSceneManager instance
  • SpawnManager -- NetworkSpawnManager instance
  • NetworkConfig -- project network configuration

Key NetworkManager events: OnClientConnectedCallback, OnClientDisconnectCallback, OnConnectionEvent, OnServerStarted/OnServerStopped, OnClientStarted/OnClientStopped, OnTransportFailure

NetworkObject and NetworkBehaviour

NetworkObject

Every networked GameObject needs a NetworkObject component. It provides identity, ownership, and visibility.

Key properties:

  • NetworkObjectId (ulong) -- unique ID synchronized across network
  • IsSpawned -- whether spawned on the network
  • OwnerClientId -- client ID of current owner
  • IsOwner -- true if local player owns this object
  • HasAuthority -- true if local instance has authority

Spawning (server-side only):

// Basic spawn
NetworkObject netObj = Instantiate(prefab).GetComponent<NetworkObject>();
netObj.Spawn();

// Spawn with specific owner
netObj.SpawnWithOwnership(clientId);

// Spawn as player object
netObj.SpawnAsPlayerObject(clientId);

// Despawn
netObj.Despawn(destroy: true);

Ownership (server-side only):

netObj.ChangeOwnership(newClientId);
netObj.RemoveOwnership();

Visibility:

netObj.NetworkShow(clientId);
netObj.NetworkHide(clientId);
bool visible = netObj.IsNetworkVisibleTo(clientId);
NetworkBehaviour

All networked scripts inherit from NetworkBehaviour instead of MonoBehaviour.

Lifecycle methods (in order):

  1. OnNetworkPreSpawn(ref NetworkManager) -- before any spawning
  2. OnNetworkSpawn() -- after NetworkObject spawns; register handlers here
  3. OnNetworkPostSpawn() -- after all sibling NetworkBehaviours spawn
  4. OnNetworkPreDespawn() -- before despawn
  5. OnNetworkDespawn() -- on despawn

Ownership callbacks:

  • OnGainedOwnership() / OnLostOwnership()
  • OnOwnershipChanged(ulong previous, ulong current) -- fires on all clients
using Unity.Netcode;

public class PlayerController : NetworkBehaviour
{
    public override void OnNetworkSpawn()
    {
        if (IsOwner)
        {
            // Initialize local player controls
            EnableInput();
        }
    }

    void Update()
    {
        if (!IsOwner) return;
        // Only the owner processes input
        HandleMovement();
    }

    public override void OnNetworkDespawn()
    {
        // Cleanup
    }
}

Status checks: IsServer, IsClient, IsHost, IsOwner, IsSpawned, IsLocalPlayer, HasAuthority

NetworkVariables

NetworkVariable<T> synchronizes state from server to all clients automatically. Type T must be unmanaged (primitives, unmanaged structs).

public class PlayerHealth : NetworkBehaviour
{
    public NetworkVariable<int> Health = new NetworkVariable<int>(
        value: 100,
        readPerm: NetworkVariableReadPermission.Everyone,
        writePerm: NetworkVariableWritePermission.Server
    );

    public override void OnNetworkSpawn()
    {
        Health.OnValueChanged += OnHealthChanged;
    }

    public override void OnNetworkDespawn()
    {
        Health.OnValueChanged -= OnHealthChanged;
    }

    private void OnHealthChanged(int oldValue, int newValue)
    {
        Debug.Log($"Health changed: {oldValue} -> {newValue}");
        UpdateHealthUI(newValue);
    }

    // Server-side only (due to WritePerm.Server)
    public void TakeDamage(int amount)
    {
        if (!IsServer) return;
        Health.Value -= amount;
    }
}

Write permissions:

  • NetworkVariableWritePermission.Server (default) -- only server can write
  • NetworkVariableWritePermission.Owner -- only owner can write

NetworkList -- synchronized list (T must be unmanaged + IEquatable<T>):

public class Inventory : NetworkBehaviour
{
    public NetworkList<int> Items;

    void Awake()
    {
        Items = new NetworkList<int>();
    }

    public override void OnNetworkSpawn()
    {
        Items.OnListChanged += OnItemsChanged;
    }

    private void OnItemsChanged(NetworkListEvent<int> changeEvent)
    {
        Debug.Log($"List changed: {changeEvent.Type}");
    }
}

RPCs (ServerRpc, ClientRpc)

RPCs are remote procedure calls between server and clients. Methods must be in a NetworkBehaviour and use the [Rpc] attribute with a SendTo target.

Unified Rpc Attribute (v2.x)
public class CombatSystem : NetworkBehaviour
{
    // Server executes this when any client calls it
    [Rpc(SendTo.Server)]
    void AttackRpc(int targetId, RpcParams rpcParams = default)
    {
        ulong senderId = rpcParams.Receive.SenderClientId;
        ProcessAttack(senderId, targetId);
    }

    // All clients (and host) execute this
    [Rpc(SendTo.ClientsAndHost)]
    void ShowDamageEffectRpc(Vector3 position, int damage)
    {
        SpawnDamagePopup(position, damage);
    }

    // Only the owner executes this
    [Rpc(SendTo.Owner)]
    void NotifyOwnerRpc(string message)
    {
        Debug.Log(message);
    }

    // Everyone including sender
    [Rpc(SendTo.Everyone)]
    void PlaySoundRpc(int soundId)
    {
        AudioManager.Play(soundId);
    }
}
SendTo Targets
TargetDescription
ServerExecutes on server; locally if called on server
NotServerAll clients except server (excludes host)
OwnerObject's owner only
NotOwnerEveryone except owner
AuthorityServer in client-server; owner in distributed authority
NotAuthorityAll non-authority instances
ClientsAndHostAll clients including host
EveryoneAll instances on the observer list
MeLocal execution only
NotMeEveryone except sender
SpecifiedInParamsTarget set at runtime via RpcSendParams
Legacy Attributes (still supported)
[ServerRpc]
void RequestSpawnServerRpc(ServerRpcParams rpcParams = default)
{
    // Runs on server; only owner can call by default
}

[ClientRpc]
void UpdateUIClientRpc(int score)
{
    // Runs on all clients
}

Connection Approval

Use ConnectionApprovalCallback on NetworkManager to validate connecting clients.

// Server-side: register approval callback
NetworkManager.Singleton.ConnectionApprovalCallback = (request, response) =>
{
    string password = System.Text.Encoding.UTF8.GetString(request.Payload);
    response.Approved = (password == "secret");
    response.CreatePlayerObject = response.Approved;
    // Optionally set: response.PlayerPrefabHash, response.Position, response.Rotation
    if (!response.Approved) response.Reason = "Invalid password";
    response.Pending = false; // Signal decision is made
};

// Client-side: set payload before connecting
NetworkManager.Singleton.NetworkConfig.ConnectionData =
    System.Text.Encoding.UTF8.GetBytes("secret");
NetworkManager.Singleton.StartClient();

Scene Management

NetworkSceneManager (accessed via NetworkManager.Singleton.SceneManager) handles synchronized scene loading.

public class GameSceneManager : NetworkBehaviour
{
    public void LoadGameScene()
    {
        if (!IsServer) return;
        // Server-only: loads scene on all clients
        NetworkManager.Singleton.SceneManager.LoadScene("GameScene", LoadSceneMode.Single);
    }

    public void LoadAdditiveScene()
    {
        if (!IsServer) return;
        NetworkManager.Singleton.SceneManager.LoadScene("Arena", LoadSceneMode.Additive);
    }

    public override void OnNetworkSpawn()
    {
        NetworkManager.Singleton.SceneManager.OnSceneEvent += OnSceneEvent;
    }

    void OnSceneEvent(SceneEvent sceneEvent)
    {
        switch (sceneEvent.SceneEventType)
        {
            case SceneEventType.LoadComplete:
                Debug.Log($"Client {sceneEvent.ClientId} loaded {sceneEvent.SceneName}");
                break;
            case SceneEventType.LoadEventCompleted:
                Debug.Log($"All clients loaded {sceneEvent.SceneName}");
                break;
            case SceneEventType.SynchronizeComplete:
                Debug.Log($"Client {sceneEvent.ClientId} fully synchronized");
                break;
        }
    }
}

Scene event types: OnLoad, OnUnload, OnSynchronize, OnLoadComplete, OnUnloadComplete, OnLoadEventCompleted, OnUnloadEventCompleted, OnSynchronizeComplete

Important: Do NOT start new scene events within scene event callbacks.

Unity Multiplayer Services (Relay, Lobby)

Full integration examples in references/transport-layer.md

Unity Relay

Relay provides NAT punchthrough via cloud relay servers (no port forwarding needed). Requires UGS authentication.

Host flow: Create allocation, get join code, configure transport, start host. Client flow: Join allocation with code, configure transport, start client.

// Host: create relay and start
Allocation allocation = await RelayService.Instance.CreateAllocationAsync(maxPlayers);
string joinCode = await RelayService.Instance.GetJoinCodeAsync(allocation.AllocationId);
transport.SetRelayServerData(allocation.ToRelayServerData("dtls")); // "dtls" = encrypted UDP
NetworkManager.Singleton.StartHost();

// Client: join relay and connect
JoinAllocation join = await RelayService.Instance.JoinAllocationA

# Unity Multiplayer & Networking

## Multiplayer Architecture Overview

Unity's multiplayer ecosystem comprises several layers:

| Layer | Package/Service | Purpose |
|-------|----------------|---------|
| High-Level | Netcode for GameObjects | GameObject-based networking logic |
| High-Level | Netcode for Entities | DOTS-based networking |
| Low-Level | Unity Transport (`com.unity.transport`) | UDP/WebSocket communication with optional reliability, ordering, fragmentation |
| Services | Relay | NAT traversal via cloud relay servers |
| Services | Lobby | Matchmaking and session discovery |
| Services | Sessions SDK | Player group management |
| Tools | Multiplayer Play Mode | Simulate up to 4 players in-editor |
| Tools | Multiplayer Tools | Analysis, debugging, testing utilities |

**Topology options:**
- **Client-Server (Dedicated):** Server has authority; clients send inputs, server validates
- **Client-Server (Listen/Host):** One player acts as both server and client
- **Distributed Authority:** Ownership-based authority distributed among clients

Use the **Multiplayer Center** (Window > Multiplayer > Multiplayer Center) to get package recommendations based on your game's needs.

## Netcode for GameObjects Setup

### Installation
Install `com.unity.netcode.gameobjects` (v2.10+) via Package Manager. This automatically pulls in `com.unity.transport`.

### NetworkManager Configuration
Add a `NetworkManager` component to a GameObject in your scene. It is the singleton entry point for all networking.

```csharp
using Unity.Netcode;

public class GameLauncher : MonoBehaviour
{
    public void StartAsHost()
    {
        NetworkManager.Singleton.StartHost();
    }

    public void StartAsServer()
    {
        NetworkManager.Singleton.StartServer();
    }

    public void StartAsClient()
    {
        NetworkManager.Singleton.StartClient();
    }

    public void Shutdown()
    {
        NetworkManager.Singleton.Shutdown();
    }
}
```

**Key NetworkManager properties:**
- `IsServer`, `IsClient`, `IsHost` -- execution context
- `ConnectedClients` -- dictionary of connected clients
- `ConnectedClientsIds` -- read-only list of client IDs
- `LocalClientId` -- local client's ID
- `SceneManager` -- `NetworkSceneManager` instance
- `SpawnManager` -- `NetworkSpawnManager` instance
- `NetworkConfig` -- project network configuration

**Key NetworkManager events:** `OnClientConnectedCallback`, `OnClientDisconnectCallback`, `OnConnectionEvent`, `OnServerStarted`/`OnServerStopped`, `OnClientStarted`/`OnClientStopped`, `OnTransportFailure`

## NetworkObject and NetworkBehaviour

### NetworkObject
Every networked GameObject needs a `NetworkObject` component. It provides identity, ownership, and visibility.

**Key properties:**
- `NetworkObjectId` (ulong) -- unique ID synchronized across network
- `IsSpawned` -- whether spawned on the network
- `OwnerClientId` -- client ID of current owner
- `IsOwner` -- true if local player owns this object
- `HasAuthority` -- true if local instance has authority

**Spawning (server-side only):**
```csharp
// Basic spawn
NetworkObject netObj = Instantiate(prefab).GetComponent<NetworkObject>();
netObj.Spawn();

// Spawn with specific owner
netObj.SpawnWithOwnership(clientId);

// Spawn as player object
netObj.SpawnAsPlayerObject(clientId);

// Despawn
netObj.Despawn(destroy: true);
```

**Ownership (server-side only):**
```csharp
netObj.ChangeOwnership(newClientId);
netObj.RemoveOwnership();
```

**Visibility:**
```csharp
netObj.NetworkShow(clientId);
netObj.NetworkHide(clientId);
bool visible = netObj.IsNetworkVisibleTo(clientId);
```

### NetworkBehaviour
All networked scripts inherit from `NetworkBehaviour` instead of `MonoBehaviour`.

**Lifecycle methods (in order):**
1. `OnNetworkPreSpawn(ref NetworkManager)` -- before any spawning
2. `OnNetworkSpawn()` -- after NetworkObject spawns; register handlers here
3. `OnNetworkPostSpawn()` -- after all sibling NetworkBehaviours spawn
4. `OnNetworkPreDespawn()` -- before despawn
5. `OnNetworkDespawn()` -- on despawn

**Ownership callbacks:**
- `OnGainedOwnership()` / `OnLostOwnership()`
- `OnOwnershipChanged(ulong previous, ulong current)` -- fires on all clients

```csharp
using Unity.Netcode;

public class PlayerController : NetworkBehaviour
{
    public override void OnNetworkSpawn()
    {
        if (IsOwner)
        {
            // Initialize local player controls
            EnableInput();
        }
    }

    void Update()
    {
        if (!IsOwner) return;
        // Only the owner processes input
        HandleMovement();
    }

    public override void OnNetworkDespawn()
    {
        // Cleanup
    }
}
```

**Status checks:** `IsServer`, `IsClient`, `IsHost`, `IsOwner`, `IsSpawned`, `IsLocalPlayer`, `HasAuthority`

## NetworkVariables

`NetworkVariable<T>` synchronizes state from server to all clients automatically. Type `T` must be `unmanaged` (primitives, unmanaged structs).

```csharp
public class PlayerHealth : NetworkBehaviour
{
    public NetworkVariable<int> Health = new NetworkVariable<int>(
        value: 100,
        readPerm: NetworkVariableReadPermission.Everyone,
        writePerm: NetworkVariableWritePermission.Server
    );

    public override void OnNetworkSpawn()
    {
        Health.OnValueChanged += OnHealthChanged;
    }

    public override void OnNetworkDespawn()
    {
        Health.OnValueChanged -= OnHealthChanged;
    }

    private void OnHealthChanged(int oldValue, int newValue)
    {
        Debug.Log($"Health changed: {oldValue} -> {newValue}");
        UpdateHealthUI(newValue);
    }

    // Server-side only (due to WritePerm.Server)
    public void TakeDamage(int amount)
    {
        if (!IsServer) return;
        Health.Value -= amount;
    }
}
```

**Write permissions:**
- `NetworkVariableWritePermission.Server` (default) -- only server can write
- `NetworkVariableWritePermission.Owner` -- only owner can write

**NetworkList<T>** -- synchronized list (T must be `unmanaged` + `IEquatable<T>`):
```csharp
public class Inventory : NetworkBehaviour
{
    public NetworkList<int> Items;

    void Awake()
    {
        Items = new NetworkList<int>();
    }

    public override void OnNetworkSpawn()
    {
        Items.OnListChanged += OnItemsChanged;
    }

    private void OnItemsChanged(NetworkListEvent<int> changeEvent)
    {
        Debug.Log($"List changed: {changeEvent.Type}");
    }
}
```

## RPCs (ServerRpc, ClientRpc)

RPCs are remote procedure calls between server and clients. Methods must be in a `NetworkBehaviour` and use the `[Rpc]` attribute with a `SendTo` target.

### Unified Rpc Attribute (v2.x)
```csharp
public class CombatSystem : NetworkBehaviour
{
    // Server executes this when any client calls it
    [Rpc(SendTo.Server)]
    void AttackRpc(int targetId, RpcParams rpcParams = default)
    {
        ulong senderId = rpcParams.Receive.SenderClientId;
        ProcessAttack(senderId, targetId);
    }

    // All clients (and host) execute this
    [Rpc(SendTo.ClientsAndHost)]
    void ShowDamageEffectRpc(Vector3 position, int damage)
    {
        SpawnDamagePopup(position, damage);
    }

    // Only the owner executes this
    [Rpc(SendTo.Owner)]
    void NotifyOwnerRpc(string message)
    {
        Debug.Log(message);
    }

    // Everyone including sender
    [Rpc(SendTo.Everyone)]
    void PlaySoundRpc(int soundId)
    {
        AudioManager.Play(soundId);
    }
}
```

### SendTo Targets

| Target | Description |
|--------|-------------|
| `Server` | Executes on server; locally if called on server |
| `NotServer` | All clients except server (excludes host) |
| `Owner` | Object's owner only |
| `NotOwner` | Everyone except owner |
| `Authority` | Server in client-server; owner in distributed authority |
| `NotAuthority` | All non-authority instances |
| `ClientsAndHost` | All clients including host |
| `Everyone` | All instances on the observer list |
| `Me` | Local execution only |
| `NotMe` | Everyone except sender |
| `SpecifiedInParams` | Target set at runtime via `RpcSendParams` |

### Legacy Attributes (still supported)
```csharp
[ServerRpc]
void RequestSpawnServerRpc(ServerRpcParams rpcParams = default)
{
    // Runs on server; only owner can call by default
}

[ClientRpc]
void UpdateUIClientRpc(int score)
{
    // Runs on all clients
}
```

## Connection Approval

Use `ConnectionApprovalCallback` on `NetworkManager` to validate connecting clients.

```csharp
// Server-side: register approval callback
NetworkManager.Singleton.ConnectionApprovalCallback = (request, response) =>
{
    string password = System.Text.Encoding.UTF8.GetString(request.Payload);
    response.Approved = (password == "secret");
    response.CreatePlayerObject = response.Approved;
    // Optionally set: response.PlayerPrefabHash, response.Position, response.Rotation
    if (!response.Approved) response.Reason = "Invalid password";
    response.Pending = false; // Signal decision is made
};

// Client-side: set payload before connecting
NetworkManager.Singleton.NetworkConfig.ConnectionData =
    System.Text.Encoding.UTF8.GetBytes("secret");
NetworkManager.Singleton.StartClient();
```

## Scene Management

`NetworkSceneManager` (accessed via `NetworkManager.Singleton.SceneManager`) handles synchronized scene loading.

```csharp
public class GameSceneManager : NetworkBehaviour
{
    public void LoadGameScene()
    {
        if (!IsServer) return;
        // Server-only: loads scene on all clients
        NetworkManager.Singleton.SceneManager.LoadScene("GameScene", LoadSceneMode.Single);
    }

    public void LoadAdditiveScene()
    {
        if (!IsServer) return;
        NetworkManager.Singleton.SceneManager.LoadScene("Arena", LoadSceneMode.Additive);
    }

    public override void OnNetworkSpawn()
    {
        NetworkManager.Singleton.SceneManager.OnSceneEvent += OnSceneEvent;
    }

    void OnSceneEvent(SceneEvent sceneEvent)
    {
        switch (sceneEvent.SceneEventType)
        {
            case SceneEventType.LoadComplete:
                Debug.Log($"Client {sceneEvent.ClientId} loaded {sceneEvent.SceneName}");
                break;
            case SceneEventType.LoadEventCompleted:
                Debug.Log($"All clients loaded {sceneEvent.SceneName}");
                break;
            case SceneEventType.SynchronizeComplete:
                Debug.Log($"Client {sceneEvent.ClientId} fully synchronized");
                break;
        }
    }
}
```

**Scene event types:** `OnLoad`, `OnUnload`, `OnSynchronize`, `OnLoadComplete`, `OnUnloadComplete`, `OnLoadEventCompleted`, `OnUnloadEventCompleted`, `OnSynchronizeComplete`

**Important:** Do NOT start new scene events within scene event callbacks.

After setup, propose one small task with explicit inputs and expected output for the user to approve. Do not treat copying this prompt or successful installation as proof that the task succeeded.

Copying is not installation or a successful run. Check dependencies, API costs and permissions before proceeding.

Listed tools are metadata hints, not tested compatibility. Agent prompts are suggested handoffs.

Start with one small task

  1. 1Read the source. Confirm the input, expected output, dependencies and permissions.
  2. 2Ask your agent for a plan. Approve setup and any costs before running a small isolated test.
  3. 3Check the output and changed files. Report only what actually ran; keep the source revision for reproduction.

Check the source for dependencies, API keys and third-party costs. A public repository does not mean every service is free.

Copies are not installs. Installation counts require a reported successful installation; they are not a blanket quality guarantee.

Agent access

This page exposes the same decision, trust, audit, use-case, and install signals through the Registry API, so agents can rank this skill without scraping the UI.
