Handshake message on connect

Open Sardelka9515 opened this issue 3 years ago • 4 comments

It'll be nice to be able to send a handshake message on connect, allowing the server to reject connection or send a HandshakeSucess message back

Is the use case to be able to reject a connection server-side? The library provides such a capability. Please help me understand the goal. Cheers

A handshake message on connect will provide ability of custom authentication #117, e.g. username/password validation. Also the server could use the handshake message to initialize a client.

Like Lidgren.Network's connection approval

Got it. Thanks for the context. I'd happily take a PR on this if you're up for it!
