Issues and Bug Reporting

Summary

In the new engine version 5.5 the OSC Plugin is not working if you are using the local host address (127.0.0.1) as the address for both Server and Client. This could be a me issue but seems that some more people struggled with it.

Instead if you are using your IPV4 address it works as intended. This is an issue that I only had in the UE_5.5 update as previous versions did not have a problem using the 127.0.0.1 as the address.

Steps to Reproduce

Enable OSC Plugin and create a server. From my tests if you set the address as 127.0.0.1 it doesn’t bind to messages send to that address.

Expected Result

Having the OSC Server / Client work with 127.0.0.1 as the address.

Observed Result

Server not binding to received messages when using 127.0.0.1 as the address.
