Yet-another Multiplayer Demo

Also found this, it seems that there was a bug in the socket.io version 0.9.5, which resulted in this delay:

Quote:

"Solved the issue, it turns out it was a bug introduced in socket.io 0.9.5. If you have this issue just update BOTH your server and client-side code to socket.io > 0.9.9 and set the socket.io client-side options sync disconnect on unload to true and you're all set.

Options are set this way:

var socket = io.connect('http://yourdomain.com', {'sync disconnect on unload' : true});

Thanks, I just found that heroku could not eat ["flashsocket"]

io.set("transports", ["flashsocket"])

Update plugin -

rex_bottleneck

rex_bottleneck_lobby

These are zip file.

The "left delay" at game lobby of Mini Town has gone.

Thanks xoros , your solution is very perfect.

Thanks to rexrainbow!

Should anything be updated in the server sources?

xoros

Yes, you could try mini town demo to test "left delay".

I'm running your node.js server on my local machine and it works like a charm right now, there's no delay.

I just wanted to know, whether you updated anything the server source code.

xoros

I update the version of socket.io server at heroku, update the socket.io client , and add

'sync disconnect on unload' : true

Some of the plugins need are unavailable. What do I do?

InvaderX

I have fixed these links. Or you could download them by this tool, Or find them at this link.

Thanks!

Okay, I used your example and made a multiplayer mode..thingy in my game. When I test is, is it supposed to say "login failed!"?

InvaderX

You might test it after exporting.

If I wanted each play to see their score using the same text box, how would I do that? Like each player sees their own score

InvaderX

"each player sees their own score"

It means this action does not need to be sync, just show the score like in single player (normal way).

Okay, I just tested it, on my computer it said "connecting to lobby..... login failed! InvaderX joined." and I couldn't chat. On my friend's computer it said "connecting to lobby..." and never changed. How do I fix this?

EDIT: I tried this twice more, and now it just gives me "Login Failed!"
