Many network APIs such as ENet and WebRTC allow the creation of multiple independent channels which behaves, in a way, like separate connections. This means that reliable data will only block delivery of other packets on that channel, and ordering will only be in respect to the channel the packet is being sent on.

Refer to the specific network API documentation (e.g. ENet or WebRTC) to learn how to set up channels correctly. + </member> <member name="transfer_mode" type="int" setter="set_transfer_mode" getter="get_transfer_mode" enum="MultiplayerPeer.TransferMode" default="0"> The manner in which to send packets to the [code]target_peer[/code].
