Need separate server for voice data #8

Open Zingabopp opened 3 years ago

Zingabopp commented 3 years ago

Beat Games does not foreign traffic going through their master server, need a standalone server for voice data.

would p2p w/ some kind of nat holepunching make sense, perhaps via webrtc? that way, the only foreign traffic is the signalling necessary for establishing the webrtc connection.

edit: i guess what i'm describing is known as a webrtc mesh, and it sounds like it's discouraged for video calls for bandwidth reasons, but i can't find anything on how it is for audio (yet)?

Zingabopp commented 3 years ago

Beat Saber already does hole punching and p2p iirc. Lobby data only goes through Beat Saber servers if hole punching fails. I don't really know much about the mechanics of it, so I doubt I'd be able to do better. A server wouldn't be difficult to do, problem is a lack of motivation right now.

that is why i mentioned webrtc, because it handles the all the holepunching stuff for you (and a lot of the audio stuff too, maybe?), as long as you provide a layer somewhere for doing the signalling between the peers (i.e. a central server, or an existing connection). if that failed, i wouldn't bother trying to figure out another way to do it.

edit: but fair enough on beat saber already doing it, is it possible to check if stuff is p2p and prevent sending things out over beat saber's relay servers?
