⭐The jump logic needs a good refactor! Like this comment if you’d like to see a follow up with a better jump implementation, and maybe strafing.😅 🚨Also Correction: Fix to the player_input run line, change it to this: "if input_motion. length() > 0 && Input. is_action_pressed ("run"):", makes sure they only run when moving, not just when holding shift, unless you want that 😅

Best godot channel right now! This series is basically a detailed course about multiplayer in godot and thats why it is so good. I'm learning a lot of interesting stuff Thanks!

You can save some replication and some work on the server by doing the camera calculations locally on the client - the client would take its inputs and transform them into a movement direction using its local camera state, and send *that* to the server. The server would still do the actual movement, but using a direction calculated by the client. Of course the client could fake a camera direction and try to send the character in some weird direction (through the floor or into space or something) but the server could sanitize the movement direction before applying it. (zero out any vertical element or whatever makes sense for your game)

Amazing channel and great tutorial. You are carrying me through my godot learning journey! Slight programmer nitpick. The if/else for running is completely unnecessary. You just need to do "running = Input.is_action_pressed("running")" :)

Love these videos, learning so much. Can I ask what keyboard your using? It sounds nice

You are awesome, you. Have a new loyal follower. Thanks a lot !

Great informative video, thank you so much.

14:47 instead of oppening another script every time to get func name, you could rewrite in your player script this: @onready var player_input := $PlayerInput as PlayerInput And in PlayerInput script after "extends MultiplayerSynchronizer" below add "class_name PlayerInput" After that, hints would always be shown in the player script 😁

thank you sir 👌👌

Thank you

Bravo 👏Great tutorial and enjoyable edit for a complex topic. Do you plan to make one showing how to handle lot of bullets and hit boxes with authoritative server?

I thought movement was dictated by the animations in root motion, to prevent sliding and stuff. is root motion not the way for multiplayer games? I'm still learning so I apologize if I'm wrong. great videos btw, keep up the good work!

I can’t wait for you to start making DBMS tutorials PostgreSQL

Sensei, will you be covering Lobby, where people can join to fight a certain level together?

I'm developing multiplayer game and using GUT for unit testing. Is there any tutorial to test multiplayer connection using GUT? What I'm expecting is we can do spawn more than 1 game, test its MultiplayerPeer for 2 or more players. Thank you in advance 🙏

Which version is this? 4.0, 4.1, 4.2, etc

Ok so I have a child rig for gender now what?
