Anyone here familiar with the GMNet Engine? It markets itself as 'Game Maker Networking made easy!' with 'no networking knowledge required', and i checked through the manual and tested the example itself, and i can see it must be pretty easy to make online games with that engine, as compared to some pre-Studio engines and tutorials.
But in the Manual (https://gmnet-engine.org/manual/) i couldn't find info on how to host and join another player's game, just the coding tutoring and how to make a game with the engine. So, i was just planning to give an Executable to my friend and test if we could actually play online on the engine, to see if it worked in the first place. But how do i join a friend's game? Is it from the Connect to Server or Online Lobby ? And what should the hosting player put there as Port and Server?
