TCPIP in BGT
Howdy. Was wondering if anyone has ever found a way to do any sort of TCPIP stuff in BGT? I know it does a form of UDP which is great and all, but the ability to make a simple connection would be useful in a couple of cases. Anyone know if this is possible even using an
Re: I'm Not Sure What to use to code
BGT is great to start with if what you want to do is quickly create a game. BGT however will severely limit you when it comes to important things like 3d audio, cross platform support ETC. You also will not be making much of anything else in BGT besides

That's the tricky thing about arrays. Getting a length will give you the length of the array, but since the array is base 0, you always have to subtract one from the total length so you don't go over. I was spoiled with vb6 since it is always base 1. I can't
