I spent so much of the early year 2000 playing Unreal Tournament instagib mode on Facing Worlds: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Facing_Worlds
I never really got into UT, but from the screenshot, it's giving me The Longest Yard Q3 Demo vibes... instagib railgun... those were the days...
I wish they would GPL it like Quake. Even if it was missing some proprietary dependencies I bet the community could replace them. I recently helped port ioquake3 to the web, complete with UDP multiplayer, and set up an online demo using the internet archive's copy of the Quake III demo: https://thelongestyard.link It would be cool to be able to do the same with Unreal Tournament.

Facing Worlds is still one of those maps that I wish every game had. The concept is so simple. Two towers with a bridge between them. Have fun. It would be fun in any game. GTA, Overwatch, Halo, anything. Funny seeing it have its own wiki page. I didn't know my childhood would be archived like this. :D I used to get so many MONSTER KILLS on that map it was nuts.

you mean like to browser? If yes, how did you achieve UDP connections? To my best knowledge, browsers allow TCP only

WebRTC can run over UDP, but it's not raw UDP. I think that's what they meant.
Earlier quoted context omitted.

WebSockets are TCP-only. WebRTC can run over UDP, but it's not raw UDP. I think that's what they meant.

EDIT: actually I can't find the code, shouldn't it be linked as per GPL's license?

Im willing to bet the code for UT is being used for Fortnite.
Open sourcing old stuff is a lot of effort. You need to find all people involved or know the legal status of the copyright. You need to go through all the code in case you had some properitary stuff in there which you might have paid for. And you need to do all of this next to what you normally do without a direct benefit.
