Hi there!

Sure! this has always been possible, you can synchronize literally any data over the network. However note this is not done automagically. Not by Obi (since it's a physics engine, not a networking solution) and not by any networking solution (since they know nothing about Obi).

Using the networking framework of your choice, you must sync particle data between host/server and clients. Here's the API to get/set particle positions, velocities, etc:

As a networking solution, a good starting point is Unity's netcode:

Thank you very much for the quick answer.
