Connecting to a web server

#1 Don't use torque script to do that, I suggest ObjectiveC instead, just create a dummy viewController and include the following headers:

#include "platformiPhone/platformiPhone.h"
#include "console/console.h"

create a function that connects to the server:
void connectToServer()
{
// do whatever is needed
}

finally expose that function to the script:


ConsoleFunction(connectToServer, void, 1, 1, "connectToServer()")
{
connectToServer();
}

Hope it helps

#2 Thanks, i was afraid that that was the way to go. I was hoping it could be done with the standard functionality of the engine.
I'm a c++ programmer and never coded in objectivec before so there's a challenge:-)

#3 My game Go Beryllium connects to a webserver to submit high scores. Just google "Go Beryllium source" for the source code (in torquescript). The game is in T2D but the same scripts work in iT2D.

#4 Thanks! Can i also use this method to send/receive pictures to/from my webserver or is it text based only?

#5 I've only used it to send/get text from a php page.

#6 Ok, i will see if i can use this for images also. If not i will write something myself in objective-c. But thanks for the suggestion!
