In this video, we go over how to use the WebSockets module in an Unreal Engine game. The WebSockets module includes only client functionality. Therefore, we use the module to establish a connection between Unreal clients and a sample NodeJS server, send and receive messages over that connection, and close that connection. Since the WebSockets module is not natively exposed to blueprints, we wrote some C code in the GameInstance and Character classes in order to not only connect to and disconnect from a server but also send messages to the server and implement event handlers in the IWebSocket interface. At the end of the video, we test multiple packaged clients simultaneously by having them all connect to the same server and send messages to each other via WebSockets.
