[iOS] what's the smart way to set up networking for a scrolling beat em up?

Hi,

Our next title is a scrolling beat em up for mobile. I'd love to put in co-op via wifi and bluetooth. I am asking for advice as it would be peer to peer without a central server with two players.

Obviously cheating is not a problem or a worry. How to handle enemies? does one device act as master and the other as slave? what kind of input lag are we looking at, and should I use the unity rigidbody stuff?

Probably about 10 things on screen will constantly update at the max.

I also did not manage to locate how to send information as just information, ie player 2 has picked up a weapon?

Thanks for any advice you can give to get me started!

 

I'm following the tutorial, but it doesn't explain how devices will discover each other over game center and so on?

 

Right I see. If using gamekit or gamecenter, you do not use unity's networking code at all.
