I'm trying to implement multiplayer in my game. So far I've got it at the point that I can send and receive messages.

I'm making a pong like game which is playable with a mouse.


The game is a 2 persons game. Now what I think I must do is send a packet with the X-movement of the paddle in a message. Also, for the client the host has to send the position of the ball (correct?) so my message would be:
message$ = "x_paddle,x_ball,z_ball"
(the game is 3d but the ball won't go up and down)

I can't send the message over the network no problem. But how do I get the correct information out of the message? I suppose I should use MID or something.
