NetworkEvent::Connected is created immediately when connecting

[Alainx277]

When trying to connect to a server using NetworkResource::connect, a Connected event is created. This happens immediately (except 1 frame delay), and even if there isn't actually a server listening.
I find this misleading and think this event should not be sent when connecting as a client.

What is the intended way to check connectivity?

Is this on UDP or WebRTC?

Native UDP

With UDP there is no connection establishment, as this is a connection-less protocol. The only way of telling whether the server is listening is to send some data and get a reply back.

Such handshake protocol is customary to the application, as it usually involves things like connection verification and authorization.
