Unreal Replication
Unreal's replication system allows for quick prototyping of multiplayer projects. However, to do this, you need to understand how the structure in Unreal works. When I started this project I did not know anything about replication. After doing a good amount of research I came across Cerdric Neukirchen's 'Unreal Engine 4' Networking Compendium. You can find their work here.
