I am a first time user of Dark Basic. I have a few quality questions.

1. Is it possible to make a multiplayer based game via Dark Basic.

2. Is there a certain level of math/ physics knowledge needed to operate DB?

1. yes, and if you have either 1.2 or 1.13 enhanced you can make multyplayer games over web

2.not required, but quality of you games increases as your knowledge does tho.however, nothing that you cant get from google. and most of it is easy stuff, like objects bouncing off walls.

now, if you are planning on selling the games you make, go with dbpro. if it is a hobby, dbc is most of wat you need.

1. Yes.

2. Yes there is. But it all really depends on what direction you go with your programming.

Ok so I eventually want to get dark basic pro. I am planning on making a game for my Online Gamer's Website. We are eventually going to release it as an online game that players can buy.

Nope, but you'll be quite limited without some math skills
