I followed the steps taken i Tigerworks tutorial, and yet all I get is a 'Bad Channel Object, you must selecta Channel'. (I get this running his tutorial aswell). Does the server need to "create" a channel before it can be signed onto? If so, how?? No.

The server does NOT need to create a channel before signing on. What you do wrong is that you connect, and then set the name, that's why MooClick gives you that error message. You're supposed to set the name and THEN connect to the server example: Start of level: -MooClick: set name to "Aggggge" -MooClick: Connect to "lol.com" on port 1203 MooClick: Connect -Sign on to channel "wheee" and then you can start sending messages n/a

Try this, i took it from the code of one of my online games, so it should work: Start of level: -MooClick: set name to [whatever] -MooClick: Connect to [server] on [port] MooClick: Player: Connect -MooClick: Player: sign on to [channel] and then when you want to send messages: Upon pressing enter: -MooClick: Channel: send text [whatever] on subchannel [whatever] and to recieve messages: MooClick: Player: On message * P_OnMessage_GetSubchannel( "MooClick" ) = [subchannel] -String: Set alterable string to: P_OnMessage_GetText$( "MooClick" ) And that's about all n/a
