@Thaddeus Well, the previous 4.14 was normal.
Do you mean 4.13 didn't have any issues? CardinalMenu_Project_v161019.zip?

I just downloaded the 4.14 version of the project and packaged it, deployed it to my desktop and laptop, and tested it in both Steam and LAN. It works. I didn't change anything with the project. If yours doesn't work, I cannot tell you why. Attached are screenshots showing my results of the tests. (These tests were conducted on the same LAN network with the server being wired to a switch connected directly to a router and the client being wireless connected to a wireless access point.)

Well, thank you, because I am the engine compiled with the source code. I can not search it by packing it, and you can search it with a compiled engine.

That test I did was with the source code. I can try the binary package released on the website as well if you'd like. After a quick search, it sounds like Steam Test AppID 480 throwing that error might be related to having too many people using the test ID in your region. You might need to get your own AppID for your project for Steam. https://answers.unrealengine.com/questions/558932/steam-removed-incompatible-build.html

Hey so I just downloaded the latest version of cardinal menu (4.18), and I seem to be having problems with the controls settings not fully showing up on a packaged version of the game which seems to break the characters movements within the example map. I have checked the defaultinput.ini file within the packaged game and the axis and action mappings are there in alphabetical order. The controls show up just fine within the standalone game when in editor but not sure why it's breaking for the packaged game unless I'm missing something. Any ideas?
-
Hmm, that's strange. I've seen a lot of weird bugs with the control mapping lately. I'll look into it.
Edit: I just tested CardinalMenu_Demo_v171227_418 and the bindings were present. Is this happening when you package the uProject Files or when you download the Demo?

@Thaddeus It's happening when I package the .uproject. It works fine within the editor when playing standalone or launching the game but once I package it, it breaks.

You have to manually drop the config files into the packaged directories once it's done. Below is where I put them in the demo to get it to work. For some reason the editor doesn't automatically place them when you package.
\CardinalMenu\Saved\Config\WindowsNoEditor\Input.ini
and
\CardinalMenu\Config\DefaultInput.iniDid that work? You might have to create some directories if they are not automatically present.

@Thaddeus That fixed it, thankyou! I also have another problem that showed up when testing the packaged build with my brother over steam. When I went to host a game he was able to see it in the server list but when he went to double click it it threw an error saying couldn't connect to server. Then I tried to join one that he created but it never showed up for me but rather showed the game I made and said that he was within that game. Tried reloading the game to see if that would fix the problem but still ran into the same server listed. Also not sure if you fixed it or not in an earlier version but the ping was showing 9999 still.

There's still no fix for the 9999 ping bug. I use the ping plugin on the main project for it, though, and broadcast the hosts IP as a session variable. The problem is Epic hasn't implemented pings for listen server sessions.
As far as the hosting and seeing sessions goes, I've had problems with LAN and WiFi. I'm sure it has something to do with network configuration. (Possibly a security setting about broadcasting packets over a WiFi access point)
If your test was over the internet, it could also be firewall rules causing the issue or Steam region lock. Since this uses Steam Test APPID's, sometimes I've had issues with Steam. If you have your own APPID, then that issue should go away. (If it's related to region locking)
Those are the three issues I've seen.
Was your multiplayer session broadcast test over LAN with WiFi? Or over the internet?

@SkillzKilli I'm glad to know that fixed your inputs! The input system has been quite the headache. I hope Epic changes the way it works soon. But I think they are more concerned about the serious engine stuff.
