Dear list, I've been asked to help make a web wargame! I was wondering if ColdFusion is a capable tool.
I'm basically envisaging a database that contains details of each side's forces. Each turn, the players send commands via a web page. Ideally CF then calculates the results of said commands and makes alterations to the data accordingly. So, at its simplest: player one decides to attack player two. CF compares the two forces then adds a random value to each. The force with the highest result wins. CF determines how much damage has been done to the winner and loser - based on the difference between the two results - then changes the database accordingly. Is that doable? What CF commands should I be investigating for this kind of calculation? Thanks!
