Checkers game with alot of tables
Hi everyone
I want to make a checkers game that when a client want to play
He gets into the server side on the server side there are a lot of rooms
Or tables to play and the server choose for the client a free room and let him play there
How many rooms I can make in this application is it 64 because 2 players can play checkers? or I can put more rooms
Thanks

I suspect you'd probably be better off creating some kind of lobby system. The clients would connect to the server, list games in progess, and a number of people waiting in the lobby. Players could then chat to each other, and invite others to play with them. Then the clients could connect directly to each other to atually play the game.

Sounds like a lot of work, but it should give you an almost unlimted number of game rooms.
