iOS Player, can not receive broadcast package

Rickyngk

Hi, I do a quick test with lua socket

local isServer = false   local port = 5885 local function __getIP() local s = socket.udp() s:setpeername("66.147.244.100",80) local ip, _ = s:getsockname() s:close() return ip end   listen = socket.udp() listen:setsockname(__getIP(),port) listen:settimeout(0)   stage:addEventListener(Event.ENTER_FRAME, function() if isServer then listen:setoption('broadcast', true) assert(listen:sendto("hello", "255.255.255.255", port)) listen:setoption('broadcast', false) else repeat local data, ip, port = listen:receivefrom() if data then print(data, ip, port) end until not data end end )

If pc-player is client, and iOSPlayer is host (do broadcast), it's ok. But if iOSPlayer is client (receive broadcast), I can not get any income package.

Did I make something wrong ? Thx

@Rickyngk I've experienced exactly the same issue, and it was not only on player but on IOS device. I could not resolve it, that's why for IOS device discovery I used multicast.

And it worked. You can check Draw together example here:
