Forge.Network is a set of APIs that are designed to solve many common problems with networking. It provides a Chat system, a Lobby system (with map downloads), and a Game system, that while generic, is designed to integrate cleanly with Forge.Entities.

We think that you'll love this library. It's built on top of the fantastic Lidgren.Network library, so it has awesome performance and awesome cross-platform support.

Feel free to dive into the code, but here's a rough outline of what's what.

• Core: Core networking primitives that abstract Lidgren.Network. All other networking components build on top of Core.
• Chat: The chat subsystem.
• Lobby: The lobby subsystem (joining games, download maps, etc).
• Pausing: Supports pausing and unpausing a game.
• AutomaticTurnGame: The subsystem designed to support a running game.
