Hello, so I am wanting a thing like rust or squad. Where you load up then select a server and you join it. I’m wanting this because I want people to run their own servers and it not being run by a client itself. Anyone got any ideas on how to do this? I know there is plugins, but I don’t want to use plugins. Please let me know!
I am not sure you are able to do what you are asking without the use of plugins. In Unreal Engine you can create a multiplayer game that is either listened or dedicated. However setting up the infrastructure to host multiple servers then listing those for the player, requires some C++ code or plugins I am afraid.
The Online Subsystems often covers the browse / listing section which is detrimental to creating a proper hosting system. I suggest you use them unless you have a great understanding of network and server hosting.
Okay, I’ll take a little look!
