OK so I am gonna try something that a lot of you will think is impossible but it has been done before. I am going to make an mmorpg kind of thing in turing for school... http://compsci.ca/v3/viewtopic.php?t=14843&start=0 its been done here but its down now... so I think it would be cool to try it for myself. I would like to learn how to do the following: Connect to a server Store information onto an internet database like username and stats of a character. |

if you look through the Turing documentation for the Net module, it comes with an example source for a chat program -- both in server and client roles. That would cover all the basics. You'd have to figure our database stuff on your own. As far as I know, Turing has a limitation that prevents it from interfacing with MySQL, and I don't recall any attempts at connecting with anything else. I suppose something like sqlite would be more feasible. Though since you will likely not use Turing to run your stats website, you might as well use _that other_ language to interact with the online database. |
