can you set the following:
- Engine/Config/BaseEngine.ini
- [/Script/HTML5Networking.WebSocketNetDriver]
- WebSocketPort=9000
ws:// (which i’m sure you already know) stands for websocket – and the ws: standards is built on TOP of HTTP – which is probably why you were able to see it connect to :9000 successfully – but, you’re not seeing the communications go through. (or, maybe you are seeing the coms go through and the protocol part is messing up the load sequence as you’ve noted.)
after setting the config file – can you then try:
open serverIP:port
no http: nor ws: protocols – just IP address (and port #)
i’m thinking, after you set the config file – you probably don’t need the :port – but, it doesn’t hurt to try both ways.
