If you look closely, this is the monster hunt tutorial.
The main code was left intact, so my mods to support 2 player
using DBC is readily visible. A DBPro version supporting 9 players
is also available from my website.
A "step by step" would be hard to describe in "game" terms, unless
a common game could be used for refrence. In this TUT,
I break things down into small steps ...
1 - ask player for type of game
Offline/Host/Join
2 - if Hosting, settup the game
3 - If joining, Connect to the host
4 - If playing online,
send player position every 0.1 seconds,
5 - if playing online,
Check for other player position, and update data,
otherwise, update data as per monsterhunt ....
6 - missiles
When firing, and online, send data.
Other computer handles all missile impacts
7 - death
If empact results in player death, a message is sent
to other computers that a player was killed, and re-spawned
in a new location.
The monster hunt tutorial serves as a great test app for experiments.
