Beacon is a networking module. It allows you to send messages back and forth between two computers using UDP. Yes, Blitz already supports doing this, but Beacon wraps Blitz's UDP commands to make it easier to setup, track and terminate connections between computers.
If you have heard of BlitzPlay, Beacon is a lot like that. However, Beacon allows for peer-to-peer network designs, which is something BlitzPlay does not. Beacon is alot simpler in alot of ways, but hopefully more features can be added as time goes by.
If anyone has any other questions they're more than willing to ask them here, too.
