everything about MMORPG made in MMF2 - questions

Pick a random port ? Above 1200 and you should be fine

then I just have this weird problem that I can't connect on server at all

thanks for your time

the servers running MOO must be hosting on the port you use else it won't connect. Public services are 1203, mine was 1209, what you use for Host Server and connect must be the same number

well it's hard to know which are in use and which are not.. I tried 9799 (I put that randomly)

But if I put it simply.. I host server on port xxxx and I connect to that server? so it needs like 2 lines of code,one for client and one for server, that's what I have involved for now. I opened those ports in my firewall and I don't have a router so I really can't tell what's problem with this.

Yes, you create a server (say on port 1203). Then, on the client side, you connect to your IP on port 1203. If it doesn't work, a firewall is blocking the app or the port isn't forwarded properly.

Phew, thanks for the advice, now I surely know that teh problem isn't in the code.

But I would like to know more about this different server system. I mean the server is coded with some more powerful and flexible language and MMF is used as clients UI and 2d-engine (which is very fine for my needs). So is there any known situtation where somebody uses server done by C++/C#/Java/Python/whatever? TCP is too slow (read, MooClick) for movement example, since the movement is needed to be done in real time.

And if you know something about these servers, can you tell about some already done libraries so you don' need to do the whole server from very beginning.. Playing with sockets and so on could be very eh.. fatal for a newb like me.

After all I'm sticking in MooClick for sure, want handle this perfectly so I know what the edges are.

Thanks for reading!
