Remarks

Network control channel message types

to add a new message type, you need to:

  • add a DEFINE_CONTROL_CHANNEL_MESSAGE for the message type with the appropriate parameters to this file

  • add IMPLEMENT_CONTROL_CHANNEL_MESSAGE for the message type to DataChannel.cpp

  • implement the fallback behavior (eat an unparsed message) to UControlChannel::ReceivedBunch()
