Hi guys,
I tried more than 5 times to write a code where each PC can move around with one Player, but I wasn't able to write such a code. Please post an example code, so that I can learn from it.
Thanks!

Here you go dude. Multiplayer Barebones That should work for you over LAN. That is as simple as it gets man, enjoy. Welcome to the joys of multiplayer, the fun has only begun. Don't be fooled by the 175 lines of code, you will have a monster in your closet. But the code is simple and small enough to help figure out how to get started. The first thing you will have to figure out is what functions/actions are being ran on the host/server and what is being ran on the client. From there life gets easier. Use Cursor keys to move. When you run from WED for Host this should be Command Line: simple.wdl -nx 50 -d hires -diag -cl -sv For Clients on LAN: simple.wdl -nx 50 -d hires -diag -cl Loco

I think it's not that difficult to program a multiplayer program (at the moment) cause I wrote a very cool chat program with features like kick someone, make Votings, write at someone specific,... I only had problems with c_move, cause I didn't know where I have to run it. But I will take a look at this.
Thank you!
PS: I think 175 lines is "nothing" and please excuse my bad english.

The monster is still in the closet.  But that is what makes it fun. It's not getting it to run, it's getting it to run well over the internet that is a nightmare. Trial and error. Test and tweak. Study. Test and tweak. The main thing is having someone you can constantly test with over the net. And your welcome, Loco

If there would be no problems and nightmares, live would be boring! 
So I've got it run now, but there is still one problem:
I have "overshootings" because of the Dead Rekoning. If I write that:
Code:
action player_move
{
my.polygon = on;
while(1)
{
player_dist.x = my.skill30 * time;
player_dist.y = my.skill31 * time;
player_dist.z = my.skill32 * time;
player_rote.pan = my.skill33;
player_rote.tilt = my.skill34;
player_rote.roll = my.skill35;
c_rotate(me,player_rote,ignore_passable + glide + use_polygon);
c_move(me,player_dist,nullvector,ignore_passable + glide + use_polygon);
ent_sendnow(me);
wait (1);
}
}
it works.
But if I only refresh the Entity, when it movement parameters are changed, it won't.
Code:
function Steuerung_Player()
{
var player_distold[3];
var player_roteold[3];
while(1)
{
if(Player)
{
player_distold[0] = player.skill30;
player_roteold[0] = player.skill33;
player.skill30 = 15 * (key_w - key_s);
player.skill33 = 2 * (key_a - key_d);
if(Player_distold[0] != player.skill30 || Player_roteold[0] != player.skill33)
{
send_skill(player.skill30,SEND_VEC);
send_skill(player.skill33,SEND_VEC);
ent_sendnow(Player);
}
camera.pan = player.pan;
camera.x = player.x;
camera.y = player.y;
camera.z = player.z + 30;
}
wait(1);
}
}

I could have started a new thread, but since you mention this, I've got some questions about it. I've looked at the code, but how exactly do you make sure a function only get's run on the client? I'm making a game on which there are only 2 player, the server and the client.
Basically it's a strategy game, so the only thing I'm doing is spawn two camera's. However the mouse code I'm using for selecting entities for both players, only works on the server for some reason.
How can I make sure it runs both on the server ánd the client? Should I use 'proc_client(my,mouse_function);'?
How to best set stuff like this up? Should I only start those functions upon a join event? Do these function then still run on the server?
(I'm probably asking before having looked into it good enough, sorry for that )
Cheers

Write it like that: Code:
function main()
{
level_load(Strategy_wmb);
while(connection == 0) {wait(1);}
wait(1);
Mouse_movement(); //Start the function, which controls the camera movement
}
function Mouse_movement()
{
.
.
.
}
Each PC which enters the session starts the function Mouse_movement().
