Connect() not working anymore?

by Josef Jahn · in Torque Game Engine · 08/23/2003 (2:07 pm) · 5 replies

Hi all,


It looks like in the current Torque HEAD, connect() doesn't exist anymore. Does anyone out there use HEAD and has multiplayer running at all? Did I miss something?

Lan games show up in the server selection gui... so you don't need connect().

There's a new function to connect. Oh yes.

You have to create a new GameConnection and then call its connect method.

I see... I asked because even the torque demo calls connect(), which doesn't exist.

@Ben: Do you have a snippet - or is the demo app going to be updated soon anyway?

The demo app... works fine?

Heh, you're right.
Still, I added this function for my own convenience ;)

%conn.setJoinPassword($Client::Password);
%conn.connect(%address);
