Need some help with communication in my game

Hi there everyone, I’ve been working on my game now for the past year for the Final Major Project of my college course.

When I REALLLLY want to do is make it playable online, over the internet by different people across the world. All I want is the code to be able to send the variables of the keys the 2nd player is pressing from one machine to another!

The problem is I’ve searched high and low and i’ve come up with very little, and no tutorials or examples on this. I did however find some stuff in a Flash Games book although it was too expensive for me to buy! LOL

My game is here; www.goste.co.uk/cv < under games / tank

So far here’s what I’ve found…

Using FlashComm (although I don’t know how its installed, modified for multiplayer, how it works or even if I can use FlashComm in an ordinary Flash MX or if I need Flash MX Communication version!)

Using LocalConnection (but as far as I know, this is local and not wide… theres some talk about remoting but I think it’s just talking about remote domains on the same computer!?)

Any information which would help me to getting closer to my goal would be greatly apprechiated!

goSTE!

by the way i’ve been coming to kirupa since i started learning actionscript and found it a very valuable resource! this is the first time i’ve used the forum however, so hey guys :slight_smile:
