Hi all, I''m in the process of learning ajax and rails so I''ve made a very simple ajax game on my site where people can log in and play. But now I want to extend it further so that they can play against each other. It''s a very simple alphabet game, but in order to calculate the score for a player I have to take into consideration what the other players did. So when the game is finished after 2 minutes all the players'' moves has to be collected, compared and the score for each one calculated and sent back. I don''t really know how to tackle this, do I have to send all player moves to a database table in order to collect information from all players? How can I in a way get information from one user to another without going through my DB? And how can I make the game start and stop at the same time for all players? Can I make some kind of global observer that can listen to several different userIDs? Or is there a way that my server can access and write data into several user sessions? Ok this post became much longer than I intended it to be about a useless game. But all I wanted to learn was more about sessions and different ways of communicating between users. So If anyone have any good tutorials or other webpages to share, I''d be very happy. --Robi -- Posted via http://www.ruby-forum.com/. --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Ruby on Rails: Talk" group.
