Networking & Multiplayer :
Is there any documentation that covers networking with orx?

If an external lib is needed im planning on using CSimpleSocket

Anyone has a better idea of a good starting point?
Thanks! :]

    Hi Maxx and welcome here! :)

    Sorry, there isn't any network layer in orx at the moment.

    I didn't know CSimpleSocket but it looks like a promising library!

    The reason why I haven't added any network layer yet is that I'd like to add more high level features such as object replications. However as there are so many high & low level network APIs out there, it's hard to find the right spot and not re-invent the wheel.
    For example, if one gets lucky enough to release on Steam, the SteamWorks API supports all one would need in that domain.

    If you have any other questions, don't hesitate! :)

    Cheers!
