Game Maker, Questions about multiplayer Options

[markchapman10]

I'm at the point that I'm ready to decide how I'm going to make my battles online. I need help with 39DLL. For more detail I'm sorta needin help as to what "Bytes" I will be sending to the client and server. I know I'll be needing to send all the digimon's stats, and what attacks the players use. After looking at a few tutorials that sounds like quite a bit. Any help out there on RRR for this kind of discussion?


Also, the battle will be turn based, the stats atm are Str, Def , and Spd (Strength, Defense, and Speed). The attacks are set, so you cant customize them. If more detail is needed then Ill give more.

Boo is very similar to python and very close to Ruby, it wouldn't take more than a couple days. Even learning python as a first language only took me 24 hrs and after time I became pretty good at it.

Also I would recommend purchasing a 2D kit as Unity by itself is mainly 3D and saves a lot of time, I personally purchased 2D Toolkit and it handles sprites, animations, and tiles as the way I want it to. There's also Uni2D which I heard good things about.

You'll more likely spend more time on learning the new interface than a language.

I would actually if I had like a live teacher (over skype) Like I did when I started GM... I have also worked on this project for quite some time on and off (mostly off though).


what would be the point in changing from something I do know to something that is mostly Alike/similar!. the only problem im having isnt with graphic, speed, or productivity (unless the productivity is on my end not the software)... I just cant for the life od my get 39DLL.
