Hi, This is a taught situation you have here ... Well, IMHO, you'll need sockets no matter what design/implementation you think of. So you probably misunderstood the requirements. (they probably prohibit the use of a certain type of sockets or protocols, ...) About the atomic movements, one way would be considering critical sections in your code and using some synchronization algorithms (dining philosophers problem). Hope this will help and good luck with your assignment On 23 February 2010 18:50, iliali16 <iliali16@xxxxxxxxx> wrote: > > Hi Guys I am currently developing a multiplayer game for my assignment now I > have problem since I am not a good C programmer and I am trying to develop a > game which has to be multiplayer and each player should be able to access a > map and move around on it and be able to see the other players moving as > well.
