    wifi offline? :D
    if you have time and want your multiplayer to be great, i recommend this guy:

    What you are using is the High Level API (HLAPI) and the video is about the LLAPI. It worked for me on Android using a WEBGL Built and running it on Android in a browser (chrome).

    He should have probably used one device as Hotspot and the other to connect to its network, thus making a local net.

    It looks like all he did was do a basic UNet connection to his router. Typical routers start with a 192.168 address. Easy peasy way to find it is open your command prompt in windows, just search it under your start menu, then type "ipconfig"

    yes and no, yes as you can use wifidirect on android, no as it will be a little bit tricky to implement as wifi direct support multicast only.
    Steps:
    1. turn on Wifi direct on devices
    2. connect one android to other using wifi direct
    3. on client device get ip of the group owner:
    info.groupOwnerAddress.getHostAddress(); //see WifiP2pInfo instance.
    4a. Use group owner as the serve so, other devices will connect to them or
    4b. Use group owner as rebroadcaster, when it will report ip addresses of each member of the group to other.

    PS. AFAIK this will work only for android and win/linux machines, with Mac and iOs the story is separate...

    Yes you , that is why it is called local multiplayer , it just depend on the wireless of your router , if you have no access on internet it will not affect on it at all

    btw i advice you to not learn UNET now cause it will be out of service after 2 years i think ,, and unity will provide better solution soon

    Can you tell me how you did it? I want to make a multiplayer fighting game that can be played via hotspot between two android devices. But can't find any tutorial or reference.
