The idea of the game is to allow all user to input their moves for 20 seconds. Every 20 seconds the server will gather all the moves made by all players in a game and calculate the new situation for all the players at the same time.
The server must receive the various input and then, when the 20 second timeout expires, it paas all these info to the game engine for the move results. Nicola.
