Hi.

I'm building a turn based 2D physics game where I want a server to be authoritative of a physics simulation and relay the sim back to clients. The game is similar to snooker, 10 balls collide for a fixed time (5 seconds). The simulation is captured at 60 fps all at once and relayed back to both players.

This would be 3000 vectors (60fps * 5 seconds * 10 balls) of positional data calculated and returned to clients each turn. There will be roughly 20 turns per challenge.

Would this be viable to do in cloud code? Apart from the difficulty of implementing it, is this outside the remit of cloud code? Currently I'm working with a typical client/dedicated-server in UE4 but if this was viable in cloud code it would save maintenance and cash spent on server hosting.

Thanks,

Ronan

I'll give it a go.  On my local machine the simulation is practically instant so 30 seconds is overkill.

Thanks for the response Liam.
