This code should send a message, but it dosn't. I know that the players are connected because I can see their names.
What's wrong with it?

DO

if net message exists()
get net message
mtype = net message type()

if mtype=3
m$ = net message string$()
endif
endif

text 10,50,m$

if keystate(50)=1 then EnterMessage=1
if EnterMessage=1 then gosub EnterMessage

LOOP

EnterMessage:

if keystate(14)
if len(text$) > 0 then text$ = left$(text$,len(text$)-1)
cls
else

if returnkey()
EnterMessage=0
cls
text 10,10,text$
send net message string 0,text$
else

oldkey$ = newkey$
newkey$ = inkey$()

if newkey$ oldkey$ then text$ = text$ + newkey$
text 10,30,text$

endif
endif
return

Anyone? If you can't tell me what's wrong maybe you could post some simple code that works.

Just noticed there are a couple of things missing in there (<> signs near last line). That's not part of the problem. They're not missing in my code.

You might want to try using different names for the EnterMessage variable and subroutine, otherwise it might get confused. That's only a suggestion, I haven't worked with multiplayer commands.

Yeah, I didn't mean to make them the same. It seems to work fine for entering the message. It just dosn't send/recieve them for some reason.

Someone must be able to help or at least have some simple code for sending a message.
