My Xmas project with older son is to try to develop a multi-player
game based on some ideas he's had. So the questions are:
1) What's involved in establishing communication over a local network
which could consist of both Macs and PCs, how do you make a
connection and communicate between MC stacks running on machines
across a network?
2) Going beyond a local network scenario, how about playing a game
across the Internet, how do you make a connection and communicate
between MC stacks running on machines across the Internet?
Whilst I've done a fair amount of MetaCard development over the last
12 months or so, I've not done any kind of inter-program
communication, so I'm not sure where to start with these aspects of
my Xmas project?! Any/all help gratefully received.
