`ConstaNetDiscovery`

ConstaNetDiscovery.gd Extends: ConstaNetHeadder

ConstaNetDiscovery is the packet type used by Constellation Network nodes to announce their presence, capabilities, and connection endpoints.
It is typically broadcast on the local network so other nodes can discover available devices and their roles.
