Godot 3D Multiplayer Template

This is a foundational template for a 3D multiplayer game, developed in Godot Engine 4.6. It offers a starting structure for your next multiplayer project, including essential functionalities for players to interact and communicate in real-time.

This template is also available on the Godot Asset Library and Godot Asset Store.

Key Features

This template provides everything you need to kickstart your multiplayer game development:

  • Network System: A base for managing client-server connections, allowing multiple players to connect and interact within the same environment.
  • Player Management: Easily add multiple players to the game, controlling their interactions and movement in a 3D space.
  • Real-Time Synchronization: Player movement, animation states, and equipped-item appearances are synchronized for all connected players.
  • Player Name Displayed: Each player's nickname is shown above their character for easy identification.
  • Player Skin Selection: Players can choose from four skin options (red, green, blue, or yellow) to personalize their avatars.
  • Global Multiplayer Chat: An integrated chat system allows players to communicate in real-time with everyone in the game.
  • Health and Respawn: Players have 10 health points with a local health bar, synchronized damage and hurt/death animations, and an automatic respawn.
  • Server-Authoritative Combat: The server validates attack windows, equipped weapons, targets, hit distance, and duplicate hits.
  • Multiplayer Inventory System: Server-authoritative inventory management with a 20-slot backpack, drag-and-drop organization, item stacking, world-item collection and dropping, plus dedicated weapon and armor slots.
