The host changing in multiplayer online games

by Mquaker · in Torque Game Engine · 08/02/2006 (10:21 pm) · 7 replies

While I'm playing the multiplayer online game, I am the host of the game.
If I get out of the game, can other player replace me as the host? namely the changing of host?
(peer server, game server)

Could you tell me what you think?

Thanks~


Note.
==> Not the joining of a server such as call of duty or day of defeat But the host changing in common multi-online games.

Here's for cross posting across five forums; great way to get people to loose respect for you and not get the answer your wanting.

   $answers = false;
}
else

   $answers = true;
}

Sorry,
In substance, I didn't know well the concept of this forum.

I felt impelled to solve this problem.
As quick as possible, I wanted to get what you think.

In the future, I will hold your principle.

But it's impossible to delete five forums.why can it delete??

Thanks~~


And now...

Is there a solution of the problem(the host changing on multi online game)?

To be fair, guys, the cross posting etiquette thing is pretty cultural.

Chris, wouldn't that look neater as:

$answers = !%majorcrossPosting;

There is a Peer Connection resource somewhere. It would probably help you do what you want to do.

Thanks~

***
I need a sort of algorithm with a detailed explanation more than the resource of peerconnection.
namely, when send/receive a datablock and Ghost object,
though a deletion request, can it load into local ghost obejects?
If it is impossible, can it take by loading into local?

Could you give me a tutorial?

Good luck~
