hi @zack1991 , my recommendation: since you can have the same players connected in more than one room at the time, then you can make 2 rooms:
1 - for the two players that will handle the entire game-play
2 - for everyone (spectators and players), then you can make your players broadcast to the second room their "movements" and all the information you want to make "public", that way you can have all spectators getting those updates.

Does this make sense for your flow?
Unfortunatelly I don't have any code examples for that specific case, though I have examples of users connected to more than one room, but that shouldn't be the issue for you.
Also you can check the colyseus showcase and look into other projects, or in the colyseus examples.

Best,
Damian

Re: Reldens - MMORPG Platform

New beta.18.1 was released!
Between the new features we have:

• Sounds system: now you can create different sound categories to group different sounds or music (for example environment sounds, scene music, etc.), assign sounds to any game event or any animations (in the demo you will find the scene music for the town and the footsteps as animation related sound), turn on/off general sound categories or per-player config.
• Mini-Map: small mini-map of the current scene, configurable in size and shape.
• Aggressive enemies: when reach the an enemy area it will hunt you!
• Initial scene/world selection: available by configuration when you create a new player or even after every login, this will set the base for a server selection feature and improve scalation (you will be able to easily split the game in multiple servers for different rooms).
• Other improvements in the events manager, in the life-bar configuration and some bugs fixed.

Open Source Project in GitHub: https://github.com/damian-pastorini/reldens
Skeleton App for starters: https://github.com/damian-pastorini/reldens-skeleton
Demo: https://dev.reldens.com/

I would recommend:
https://github.com/mikro-orm/mikro-orm
Or:
https://github.com/Vincit/objection.js

But none of these are Colyseus related, these will help you to access the data.

In terms of the integration you will have to do your own implementation, no matter what you choose.

Thanks! :)

Thanks @DevenWen ! A new beta is coming out soon with some good fixes and new features :)

Still the same for the status, you can persist a flag if the user is logged or not, but all this will depend entirely on your implementation, you could even not save that if all the players are in the same room you can validate that by looking on your state players.

hi @ttcong194 , I think you could have more options to implement the same game logic, I would recommend to join discord, check with the community what's the better approach, do some tests, etc. :)
