    I just start to learn the PVP stuff. Take a look at manual, network manager is a bit old, and then UNet seem to die soon. There is also another HLAPI in the package manager?

    I am confused. Which one should I start to look at? For a noob.

    Your confusion is not unreasonable. Unity would normally have an integrated and supported networking API, but at the moment it does not. The last one, Unet, was deprecated 2 years ago, and the replacement is obviously not seen as a priority by the company, seeing the snails pace of progress.

    Fortunately networking is a feature where there really is no need to have it integrated into the engine itself.
