ok ive gotten a bit TOO eager about multiplayer games, and i made a post containing GML code that will show what my game will look like:

//this connection is made for ipx connections
{
mplay_init_ipx();
}

//this is another for TCP/IP and its a bit more complicated…
{
mplay_ipaddress();
//to show the ip address is completely OPTIONAL and is NOT recommended,unless its in a separate room.
mplay_init_tcpip(address_here);
}

//heres one for modem connection,as you only need to enter your phone number
//note that the initilization string is left empty,witch is possible
{
mplay_init_modem(0,95155658066)
}

//finnaly, heres one for serial, witch is much more complicated and im only using this for demonstration.
{
mplay_init_serial(2,100,0,3,1)
}

//heres a short command to see wheather is returns successful
mplay_connect_status()

//and if the command above fails, the server will end to prevent bugs, or “crash”
if (false)
{
mplay_connect_status();
}
else
{
mplay_end();
};

//note that this code is VERY buggy and im leaving this open source.if you wish to debug it and repost it, im
//glad to do so. also note that certien pieces of code will not appear normally when i put it up, but will show
//normally in the compiler from where i typed it up.
