TCP Socket Listener, Receiving Binary Data into UE4 From a Python Script!

[Dakotawolf]

@CHADALAK1;379963

UPDATE: One last thing discovered:

So I’m back to the issue with the Engine Crashing and pointing to the ListenSocket

I’ve discovered that in order to make this work, I had to do the following:

1.) Start the engine
2.) Run the command line to open the .jar file to send info to the IP Port
3.) We have communication

HOWEVER

It’s causing the crash at that spot. Is there a buffer size issue maybe? What do I do about this ?

I’m getting a crash at the same point as well but my crash report seems different.
Have you got it to work by now?

here is my crash report:

Aside from that I’m a little bit confused why there’s no ReceiveBufferSize in the parameters when “CreateTCPConnectionListener” is called in “StartTCPReceiver”. How does this work if there’s no value given to it? Gave it 1024 but didn’t change anything.

Thank you for your attention.
