——————————

This demo project is the second one in a series of three in which you will learn how to lay the foundations for a lobby application to be used as a template in multiplayer game development. A lobby is a staging area which players access before joining the actual game. In a lobby, users can usually customize their profile, chat with friends, search for a game to join or launch a new game, invite friends to play and more.

This project expands the previous one by adding a friends list to the Lobby scene, with icons to represent the state of friends, controls to add, remove and block them and a panel to exchange private messages. Additionally users can access a profile panel to set their state and other details that will be visibile to their friends.

For more information, check our in-depth tutorial on the SmartFoxServer 2X documentation website.
