Looking to explore adding multiplayer

Open lgarceau768 opened this issue 2 years ago • 2 comments

I'm trying to research what it would take to get p2p multiplayer up and running using a NodeJS server, i.e. whatever solution would work. Could I get access to the discord server or the source code and not just the sprites and entities?

As long as i have find, you can easily reverse engineering the source code (for example with https://www.benf.org/other/cfr/) Then you could look at source and how did you will implements that. You speak about p2p and after node server, which is illogical. IMO, the simplest solution will be a p2p implementation, where each player's actions are send to pair.

An authoritative server implementation could be much cleaner and interesting, but will require lot of work.

(PS: if you look at source, you will see than there is some code snippet of net-code in the sources)
