Hello, StewVanB

I am sorry to hear about your problem.

Please note that the common practice in this case is to put your send and response-handling logic in separate functions. This way, you can add a function like this:

void ReceiveMessage()
{
    // assuming that variables are initialized correctly
    client->HasPendingData(dataSize);
    if (dataSize != 0){
     GEngine->AddOnScreenDebugMessage(-1, 5.f, FColor::Yellow, TEXT("Got something."));
      client->Recv(inData, dataSize, byteCount);
      GEngine->AddOnScreenDebugMessage(-1, 5.f, FColor::Yellow, FString::FromInt(byteCount));
    }

Now you can call it in timer:

 FTimerHandle MyTimerHandle;
 GetWorldTimerManager().SetTimerMyTimerHandle, this, &AMyActor::ReceiveMessage, 0.01, true);

Thus, you should get appropriate messages.

Hope this helped!

Have a great day!
