Hello everyone, I have two questions about using multisync and dark gdk together. I have the newest version of both, and i am successfully sending messages between the client and server exe. The first question When I start the server and then start the exe it connects and even says the client has joined. to make sure it was sending I sent it back to the player an positioned a cube in the inverse of the x and z position. When the server first starts it reacts very fast and the cube moves almost instantly after a couple of seconds the reaction time starts to increase to almost nothing what is wrong with it. My other question how do you have more than one client connect to a server and so that you can see each other. I have looked at the examples but they are in dbpro and there are somethings I do not know how to convert to gdk here is my server and client code
//client code
//player header

#include "multisync.h"

newPlayerObject = playerObject;
newCamera = camera;
dbMakeObjectSphere(newPlayerObject,25,10,10);
dbMakeCamera(newCamera);
dbSetCurrentCamera(newCamera);
dbSetCameraRange(0.1,1000000);
NetPlayerJoined();
}
~Player() {}
float returnPlayerX() {return dbObjectPositionX(newPlayerObject);}
float returnPlayerY() {return dbObjectPositionY(newPlayerObject);}
float returnPlayerZ() {return dbObjectPositionZ(newPlayerObject);}
float returnPlayerAngle() {return dbObjectAngleY(newPlayerObject);}
