Ask HN: Online RTS game back end tutorial, any help?
Starting one up, but finding it hard to understand how it should work..
- Eraden 12y agoWhich language?
- cnnamon 12y agoI was planning on using php for backend and javascript+html5 for front end.
- Eraden 12y agoI could say to propose you to use NodeJS instead but probably you already heard that. First at read this: http://buildnewgames.com/real-time-multiplayer/ http://buildnewgames.com/real-time-multiplayer/ This will describe you complexity of real time client-server communication. Start with login, go slowly to current game session state and updating it. Better make couple dummy games before you sit down on something really serious.
