Lacewing Relay Server help

Welcome to our brand new Clickteam Community Hub! We hope you will enjoy using the new features, which we will be further expanding in the coming months.

A few features including Passport are unavailable initially whilst we monitor stability of the new platform, we hope to bring these online very soon. Small issues will crop up following the import from our old system, including some message formatting, translation accuracy and other things.

Thank you for your patience whilst we've worked on this and we look forward to more exciting community developments soon!

  • This is my first time on the forum, I hope this is the right place to post this.

    I'm currently making a Multiplayer game in Fusion 2.5, and I'm using Lacewing Blue for the networking. I've read the entire documentation and downloaded example projects for advice, however I'm a little stumped.
    Unlike most Lacewing projects, mine isn't "peer to peer"; as in, I have a server that keeps track of all the player data. The clients can join the server, and their characters appear and update in the right places within the server program. However, I'm having issues sending the data back to the clients to update the other players on their screen. I think the problem is that the server doesnt know which channel to blast the binaries on when sending the data back. I was wondering if anybody has had a similar issue or has a project similar to mine.

    additional info: It seems that the client doesnt recieve any data to the server, as using a textbox and setting its string to "ReceivedBinarySize" returns nothing. I'm just wondering how to blast data as a server to a channel.

    I'm happy to share more information if need be. Thanks in advance! <3

  • MASSIVE EDIT: I seem to have narrowed down the issue... The server can't seem to interact with the clients at all, however the clients interact with the server perfectly. Is it because I'm trying to use a local network and they're on the same IP? I'm going to do further testing tomorrow, as this issue seems more complex then I first thought...

  • update: So, I can send text messages from the server directly to clients by manually selecting the channel and client, however I cant seem to blast data to the channel from the server and have clients see it as data blasted to the channel... strange

  • Solution: you can't blast data as a server (and if you can idk how). Use the Send feature instead


    That was fixed in Blue Server; make sure you're using the latest. You can ask for the testing/beta build on Please login to see this link..

    As a side note, you're asking on the wrong forum; it should be under Extension Development, or Technical Support. Although, multiple Relay support methods are listed Please login to see this link..
