How do I handle drag and drop in multiplayer

Hi guys,

I am having a simple game idea that two player can join into a game where there are multiple objects(some cubes) and they can move objects in turn.

Something similar to chess that you can drag and drop items on the board in turn.

What I can't figure out is how the information of drag and drop is passed on from the peer to the host and from host to the peers, so both of them can see the dragged and droped object and later on they can intercact with the object that has been dropped by the other player.

Does anyone have any example of drag and drop for multiplayer? <img src="{SMILIES_PATH}/icon_e_geek.gif" alt=":geek:" title="Geek"> <img src="{SMILIES_PATH}/icon_eek.gif" alt=":shock:" title="Shocked"> <img src="{SMILIES_PATH}/icon_question.gif" alt=":?:" title="Question"> <img src="{SMILIES_PATH}/icon_e_confused.gif" alt=":?" title="Confused">

This is what I have done so far https://www.dropbox.com/s/1gfahznq5pbnc ... .capx?dl=0

Send the positions continuously (or every x seconds) when an object is dragged + on drag and drop drop, no?

mindfaQ well I am not sure how to do that? do you mind to modify the file that I have sent you the link?

Cheers

This should help you well on your way.

Thanks lennaert that is exactly what I needed. I knew you would know the answer. Cheers mate

thanks lennaert

I've been trying to figure this out the past couple days and I just thought to check here thanks so much for the demo file, this makes so much more sense now!

lennaert Wondering if you still had that demo around, it sounds like it would be a big help in figuring out this exact same question =)
