Vazz would have been good if Orange had not gone and pissed him off... He could have hosted our client and everything. PLus he is fairly intelligent and has been a friend of mine on yanille. I trust him, but I don't know if Orange does...
Don't take this too serious, but both my palm and face are getting sore. Hosting the
client isn't the problem, the problem is hosting the
server. Let me explain this; there are two parts to a networking application: the
client, and the
server.
A client is a program that is run on a computer or device (in this case the applet used to play an rsps)that you use to connect to a server.
A
server is software running on a remote computer that allows for
clients to send messages called
packets to the computer, gives(or
serves) them data, and sends them back.
With every rsps source, there are generally two folders: a folder containing the
client code, and a folder containing the
server code. The server code contains the game data, such as characters, scripts, text, and events; the client code is what makes up the thing that you run on your computer.
In order to use it, a computer has to "host" the server. This means that you run the server program on the computer (or VPS)that all the people with clients connect to. The client is either downloaded by the players, or used in the form of a webclient in a browser.
