Scratch

I thought about this too, scratch is far too weak for an MMO but a 10 person game seems possible

And forget python, use this instead

Its really easy

have faith in scratch! Who knows what it can do with some modding.

(10 bucks says this is going to turn into a massive argument. I am EmperorEvil's brother!)

Bump

I think it would be fairly easy actually.  I designed a chat engine that could take an unlimited amount of people a while ago (file got corruped though...)

you just have to have a server project and a user project.  the user project constantly feeds data to the server, which processes it and in turn sends it to every hooked up user.

the only hitch is that you would have to get a permanent online IP address to host the server, and beyond that I'm not even sure a website could run a scratch project...

no. I made a chat engine with unlimited people.

Okay, well, lets think really simple here. How about the capabilities that we can embed into scratch? I have seen it in a lot of spinoffs and it is probably possible by simply copying and pasting. Once we have the required blocks in scratch, then get a text file that is over the internet through a fully accessable source and the scratch program will standalone completely without the need of a python, air, or any other file. Do you follow?

That's a really useful post...

it means someone just posted on a really really old thread. It's not spam....

I don't know what Build It iExpress is, what are you talking about?

Okay so then Scratch could be supposedly used together with Python, so then how does Python do it?

How would you connect with Python?

http://scratchconnections.wik.is/Getting_Started <- That should help you out. I don't think Python can connect to a server and act as a server for Scratch, so unless you have one server and multiple Scratch Programs connecting to it... it would be complicated.

This is quite an old topic... if you wish to start another topic, make sure you have a starting for the MMO.

I think you lot mean built-in iExpress.
Its a hidden tool built in to Windows that lets you compile files together and run a command. You can use it to make a scratch project into an EXE file. Some people use it to make an installer to install an application. there is a post in the fourms somewhere on how to use it.
To open iExpress on Win XP or older, go to start, Run, and type iExpress.
To open iExpress on Win Vista or 7, go to start, and in the search bar type iExpress.

This just goes to show how things get passed on and changed. It is built-in iExpress, not Build-it iExpress!

Remember, BUILT IN iExpress!!!!!!!
