The new 0.16 version of the open source Node.js multiplayer framework, Colyseus, is introducing StateView, experimental support for WebTransport, and more.
This version brings a new iteration of the @colyseus/schema library, introducing the StateView API, deprecating @filter(), and providing quality of life improvements to the framework.
Especially the experimental WebTransport support seems like something worth looking into. The documentation was also reworked, with brand new look, structure, and smooth navigation.
Keep in mind there are braking changes when moving from version 0.15, but there’s handy migration guide available. The popular MMORPG platform, Reldens, runs on Colyseus, so you can expect an update there soon as well.
