Adding Multiplayer for a Survival Game

Hey! SO I have used multiple assets from the asset store to create a game but I have a problem. I want to implement multiplayer into my game and at the moment I need it to be basic. I Have a simple Main Menu with a Play game button which currently takes you to the game scene. How can I implement multiplayer into my game using this button and while in game when I exit to main menu it switches back to the main menu scene and leaves the server. Since most likely people around the world would join and wouldn't be on my local IP how can I make them join from my computer for example. Thanks for the help

Bump again. Can anybody help me?

 

Get Photon, watch some tutorials.

You can still use your play button like it is right now, but you'll need to write a script that joins a room when the scene is loaded.

Then, spawn the player using a prefab, disable all components of non-local players, and modify all your scripts so they are networked.

 

You're asking a very complicated question that doesn't have a simple answer beyond watching tutorials for you to understand how networking systems work. It isn't just something you drop in, add a few lines of code, and then are done.

You're going to have to do several things, such as figuring out how you want to allocate players to different servers, what data do you want to be local and what data do you want the server to be in control of, how you want to fetch data that the server is in control of so that the clients have access to it, etc.
