Re: UDP Networking

Wait do you mind explaining your code a bit? Because I'm kind of confused. Haha, that's the bad thing about game jams: no time to comment your code. I didn't write the UDP server, a friend did - but I'll try my best: Server side: The server.lua is started, using plain lua. We chose not to use love ...

Re: UDP Networking

If you have an old computer you can just install Linux on it and use it as your webserver. No-ip provides free URLs for it. It would have to be on 24/7 but they don't consume that much power (I've measured, my Minecraft server uses less power than a light bulb). I cannot run my computer 24/7 as it ...

Re: UDP Networking

Well, the UDP thing you're trying to do works, but only within your LAN as far as I know. We made a script for a game jam once. The Game sucked, but we were pretty proud to have a working UDP broadcast function. Source code is freely available at: https://entropia.de/GPN12:Gamejam:KarmaExchange It'...

I'll try that.

EDIT: I looked at www.atspace.me and it looks good. So do you get to even have your own website for free too?

So you're able to create an irc server on freenode.net for free? If so then how?

UDP Networking [Solved]

Is it possible to create a list of running servers so the user can choose which one to join (like on COD) and not having a 24/7 running server that does it?
