Binary Protocol/Network Package Layout

chresan

I am looking for a comprehensive documentation of the binary protocol. The website only gives away information here: https://doc.photonengine.com/en-us/realtime/current/reference/binary-protocol#communication_layers
Is there such a documentation available somewhere?

Hi @chresan,

Thank you for choosing Photon!

If you have specific questions about the protocol maybe @Tobias can answer those.
It's based off ENet and the example here gives you more hints/info already about package header/command size etc.

Hi @JohnTube thanks for the pointers. One thing that the documentation did not reveal was which number identifies which type of parameter.
For example i know some types (boolean, 0x6f), (byte, 0x62), (float, 0x66) ... . But I don't know them all. It would be really helpful if this kind of information could be made public.
