Last updated 6 months ago

The Steam Transport comes with PurrNet by default, but requires at a minimum the Steamworks.Net package in order to work.

Parameters

  • Server Port - The port to connect through

  • Dedicated server - Whether you're connecting as/to a

  • Peer To Peer - Whether you want clients connecting directly using P2P

  • Address - The address to connect to. In case of P2P, this is the CSteamID
