I am working on a MOBA game similar to League of Legends. I am building the game server system in NodeJS/Socket.IO but I'm running into issues on figuring out the best way to handle projectiles (aka player skill-shot abilities) on the server-side. The Main goal is to be able to spawn a projectile (or projectiles) on the server-side and update the position in a certain direction (all on the server-side separate from Unity) until I specify the projectile to be destroyed. This way, each time the projectile moves I can check with every single players current position and see if the projectile hit (thus allowing me to damage the player on the server-side).

Is there any Frameworks for making such easier? Or any open-source examples? I am unsure if I will have any other issues similar to this or not, but this is the main thing stumping me as of right now.

How could I achieve this effect, or something similar?
