ArkMirage.RakNet 0.1.0

RakNet

Chinese

A pure C# implementation of the RakNet networking protocol for games and real-time applications. This library provides reliable message transport over UDP with multiple reliability levels, automatic retransmission, MTU discovery, and DoS protection.

This is a C# port of the original RakNet protocol.

Installation

Requirements

• .NET 10.0 SDK or later

Add to your project

dotnet add reference path/to/RakNet.csproj

Or add a project reference:

<ItemGroup>
  <ProjectReference Include="path/to/RakNet.csproj" />
</ItemGroup>

Quick Start

Start a server

using RakNet;

var listener = new ListenConfig
{
    ErrorLog = msg => Console.WriteLine($"Error: {msg}")
}.Listen("0.0.0.0:19132");

Console.WriteLine($"Server listening on {listener.LocalEndPoint}");

while (true)
{
    var conn = listener.Accept();
    Console.WriteLine($"New connection from {conn.RemoteEndPoint}");

    new Thread(() =>
    {
        try
        {
            while (true)
            {
                byte[] data = conn.ReadPacket();
                conn.Write(data); // Echo back
            }
        }
        catch { }
    }) { IsBackground = true }.Start();
}

Connect as a client

using RakNet;

var dialer = new Dialer
{
    ErrorLog = msg => Console.WriteLine($"Error: {msg}")
};

var conn = dialer.Dial("127.0.0.1:19132");
Console.WriteLine($"Connected to {conn.RemoteEndPoint}");

conn.Write(System.Text.Encoding.UTF8.GetBytes("Hello, RakNet!"));

byte[] response = conn.ReadPacket();
Console.WriteLine($"Received: {System.Text.Encoding.UTF8.GetString(response)}");

conn.Close();

Unconnected ping (server discovery)

var dialer = new Dialer();
byte[] pongData = dialer.Ping("127.0.0.1:19132");
Console.WriteLine($"Server replied with {pongData.Length} bytes of pong data");

    public Action<string>? ErrorLog;        // Error log callback
    public bool DisableCookies;             // Disable anti-spoofing cookies (not recommended)
    public ushort MaxMTU;                   // Maximum MTU
    public TimeSpan BlockDuration;          // IP block duration (default 10s)
