Features

GodotSteam SteamMultiplayerPeer Differences

Differences This SteamMultiplayerPeer GodotSteam SteamMultiplayerPeer
Lib Type GDExtension, add on your project libs to use easy. C++ module, you need to use the precompiled
from godotsteam or compile it yourself
Steam Connection Steam Sockets Steam Docs
Steam's lowest connection level,
manages a connection
(It's very close to Enet,
that's why I chose this approach for the plugin)
Steam Messages Steam Docs
Without a connection idea,
the connection is managed by the lobby,
Need Steam lobbies.
