A quick question about the AppGameKit multiplayer networking before I start implementing some game logic.

Are network messages received by the clients in order that they're sent? How can I guarantee that a message gets sent and received (i.e. is that already done by AppGameKit or do I need to implement it myself)?

if u add your message a command name you now
what to read at the host side.

It uses UDP for broadcasting to the player for debugging. It then gets the file with TCP.
