Abune.Server

ABUNE stands for 'Actor Based Udp Network Engine'.

This game server implementation is a based on Akka.net and provides a highly scalable actor based runtime primarily for games based on .NET core (like f.e. unity based games).

Key features

• large player count - linearly scaling of network, cpu and memory with Akka.NET cluster technology
• huge game worlds - nearly unlimited amount of game objects using Akka.NET sharding technology
• low latency - reach every object and client within one hop in less than 10 ms using the reactive nature of Akka.net
• realiable udp - quality of service layer on top of udp protocol
• single sign on - authenticate clients using external access tokens based on JWT JWT.io
• unity client samples - WORK IN PROGESS/COMING SOON different unity client implementation samples (FPS, MMO, RACING,...)

Concept

Game system

Restrictions

• no lockstep support due to massive parallelism
• restricted server side game logic due to light weight actor based system (client quorum is planned for anti cheat to support self-hosted trusted-client instances)

Getting started

• Start the server locally using VS 2019 - Open src/Abune.Server.sln and press F5
• Deploy single server instance using docker - Just run docker run abunedotnet/abune-server:0.1.0
• Deploy load balanced server cluster using kubernetes / Azure AKS - See Setup Azure Kubernetes Cluster
