Vindicator209 Posted September 14, 2006 Share Posted September 14, 2006 I was told that the only way to set info or retrieve info from the internet was through a TCP server, so woul anyone try to explain some stuff about how to set up this TCP server? Im trying to do this: If someone starts up a gui, than it sends their username to the srver, and other players can retrieve and view the players that had connected, and if they wanted to, "fgiht" them, and i would trigger a msg box on the other PC to accept, when it is accepted, then two do randoms, which are defined by their "weapons" the one with the largest attack number wins, and a msg goes to both players, and the winning player triggers a RegWrite that adds a certain amount of"coins" to the already existing reg write... i doubt any of this is possible, but it would be awsome if you could leave some tips on setting up a TCP server, or tips on how to do some parts of the above... if something up there isint possible, but another area is, just let me know how to do the possible one and ill try to find a way around it, im eager to launch my game PvP(player vs. player) Thank You -MethodZero [center]"When you look at old, classic games like Snake, you often put it off because it's such a simple game, but it's only when you actually try and create your own unique game from scratch, do you finally appreciate those games."[/center][center]Don't ask for answers if you haven't TRIED yet![/center][center]Most answers can be answered in the help file!

cppman Posted September 14, 2006 Share Posted September 14, 2006 (edited) well this is perfectly possible... Look in the help file under, TCPStartup(), TCPListen(), TCPAccept(), TCPConnect(), and TCPSend(). Here is how to work with them: ;SERVER TCPStartup() ;call this to make TCP available. $main = TCPListen(@Ipaddress1, 12345) while 1 $sock = TCPAccept($main) $data = TCPRecv($sock, 2048) ;2KB (2048 bytes) if ($data <> "") Then MsgBox(0, "", $data) endif wend TCPShutdown() ;this code wont get executed but you get the idea. oÝ÷ Ù«¢+Ø(í 1%9P)!½Ñ-åMÐ ÅÕ½Ðí}M¹ÑÅÕ½Ðì°ÅÕ½ÐííÕôÅÕ½Ðì¤)Q AMÑÉÑÕÀ ¤í͵ѡ¥¹Ì½Ù(ÀÌØíµ¥¸ôQ A ½¹¹Ð¡%ÁÉÍÌÄ°ÄÈÌÐÔ¤)¥ ÀÌØíµ¥¸ôô´Ä¤Q AM¡Õѽݸ ¤)Ý¡¥±Ä)ݹ()Õ¹}M¹Ñ ¤)Q AM¹ ÀÌØíµ¥¸°ÅÕ½ÐíÑÌÌìÌÌìÅÕ½Ðì¤)¹Õ¹ I did'nt test this, just wrote it in here.. lemme know if i did something wrong Have'nt done networking in a long time..

Vindicator209 Posted September 14, 2006 Author Share Posted September 14, 2006 thanks... the help file just made me way more confused... ok simpler question: I start up a script, the script sends the word "hello" and someone else can listen, and get a msgbox "hello" im sory, im very slow at this.. its like me and math... P.S. for the IP start up mabober, does the ip have to becertain or random?

Common sense plays a role in the basics of understanding AutoIt... If you're lacking in that, do us all a favor, and step away from the computer.

themax90 Posted September 14, 2006 Share Posted September 14, 2006 You must be blind!!!! Apparently you don't check out the words. Use a TCP Example Server and use TCP Communicator to talk to the server. Connect on the same IP and Port. Send whatever you want. More Examples: Server Global $MainSocket = -1 Global $ConnectedSocket = -1 Local $MaxConnection = 1; Maximum Amount Of Concurrent Connections Local $MaxLength = 512; Maximum Length Of String Local $Port = 1000; Port Number Local $Server = @IPAddress1; Server IpAddress TCPStartup() $MainSocket = TCPListen($Server, $Port) If $MainSocket = -1 Then Exit MsgBox(16, "Error", "Unable to intialize socket.") While 1 $Data = TCPRecv($ConnectedSocket, $MaxLength) If $Data = "~bye" Then MsgBox(16, "Session Ended", "Connection Terminated.") Exit ElseIf $Data <> "" Then ; Unconditional Receive MsgBox(0, "Received Packet", $Data) EndIf If $ConnectedSocket = -1 Then $ConnectedSocket = TCPAccept($MainSocket) If $ConnectedSocket <> -1 Then ; Someone Connected TCPSend($ConnectedSocket, "Connected!") EndIf EndIf WEnd Func OnAutoItExit() If $ConnectedSocket <> - 1 Then TCPSend($ConnectedSocket, "~bye") TCPCloseSocket($ConnectedSocket) EndIf If $MainSocket <> -1 Then TCPCloseSocket($MainSocket) TCPShutdown() EndFunc;==>OnAutoItExit Sends "Hello" Global $MainSocket Local $MaxLength = 512; Maximum Length Of Text Local $Port = 1000; Port Number Local $Server = @IPAddress1; Server IpAddress TCPStartup() $MainSocket = TCPConnect($Server, $Port) If $MainSocket = -1 Then Exit MsgBox(16, "Error", "Unable to connect.") TCPSend($MainSocket, "Hello") TCPCloseSocket($MainSocket) TCPShutdown() Hopefully you figure it out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cppman Posted September 14, 2006 Share Posted September 14, 2006 (edited) Instead of forcing the knowledge to work... Lets backtrack real quick. First get some info on what TCP is, what it CAN and CAN'T do, and how to use it. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Transmission_Control_Protocol.Then.. I can almost guarentee that this will become very simple soon enough Edited September 14, 2006 by CHRIS95219 Miva OS Project Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Vindicator209 Posted September 15, 2006 Author Share Posted September 15, 2006 (edited) Well, in other words, all i really need is that if a person clicks a gui button, it sends to the server "do accept the fight from" & $name & "?" and when/if the person is on, then they would recieve the message, and they click yes, and it sends another one back to the main server....im not asking for you to make it for me(though it would be nice) but i just want to know what exactly to do, in that form....im so confused now... ________________ | BANG HEAD HERE| |---------++-----------| |---------++-----------| |_______________| *bangs head as punishment* Edited September 15, 2006 by MethodZero [center]"When you look at old, classic games like Snake, you often put it off because it's such a simple game, but it's only when you actually try and create your own unique game from scratch, do you finally appreciate those games."[/center][center]Don't ask for answers if you haven't TRIED yet![/center][center]Most answers can be answered in the help file!
