Hello guys. I found this article http://www.create-games.com/article.asp?id=1591 but I have some problems with it. Hope you would help me.

1) I can only join if I type "localhost" in the IP box. If I type IP, it doesn't connect.

2) If there are other objects how the host should send them X,Y,Direction,Energy etc. values to the other players without a big lag ang bugs

3) That article supports only two players. More will be buggy.

If you can't even connect, maybe the server is offline? You can check by going to; http://www.mooservers.com/ Otherwise, you're doing something wrong...

This is a good example;
http://www.clickteam.com/CTforum/showthreaded.php3?Cat=&Board=upload&Number=164424&Search=true&Forum=upload&Words=mooclick&Match=Entire%20Phrase&Searchpage=4&Limit=25&Old=allposts&Main=164424

If you search the clickteam forums I'm sure you'll find others.

As far as I can tell, reducing lag is just a case of sending the minimum amount of data possible, and only when you really need to (ie. when something changes). I'm not an expert though.

Server should not be offline because I run my own server (MooClick's own Host command).

I will try that example soon.

"Server should not be offline because I run my own server (MooClick's own Host command)."

Many have had problems with that before. Just make sure your router (or firewall software, etc) isn't blocking 1203 or anything.

If you're trying to connect to your own pc you have to either connect to "localhost" or and internal ip eg. "192.168.0.10" or "10.1.1.5". You probably won't be able to connect to yourself through your internet IP if your router is blocking it. In cases like these the most common problem is not forwarding ports on your router. Either DMZ your computer if you're having huge problems or unblock port 1203 \ the port that you're using for your game.

I know there are lots of questions about MooClick but I have not find answer to this:

How can I send multiple object places to the other players? I now how to make two player online game, but what if there is also some enemies in the area? The host should send their X and Y to the other players. The enemies wont move normally in the player's screen who has joined because he receives those X and Y positions from the host.

Or is there any easier way... or is there "any" way to do that?
