Events automatically will be called without PollEvents method from another thread
(Inherited from LiteNetManager) |
| UnsyncedReceiveEvent |
If true - receive event will be called from "receive" thread immediately otherwise on PollEvents call
(Inherited from LiteNetManager) |
| UpdateTime |
Library logic update and send period in milliseconds
Lowest values in Windows doesn't change much because of Thread.Sleep precision
To more frequent sends (or sends tied to your game logic) use TriggerUpdate (Inherited from LiteNetManager) |
| UseNativeSockets |
Experimental feature mostly for servers. Only for Windows/Linux
use direct socket calls for send/receive to drastically increase speed and reduce GC pressure
