I second that, it is possible.

I have a PC communicating with Android using multiplayer commands.

Yes you can. I am still working on my online RPG http://forum.thegamecreators.com/?m=forum_view&t=207369&b=48
It isn't up right now since I am having some hosting issues.

The client is AppGameKit V1, Tier 1 and the server end is C# with no AGK. The AppGameKit net code isn't really for a client/server game, just more of a peer to peer game. But I was able to hack it and get something going. Not sure how reliable it is since if the server sends packets too fast to the client, it breaks the connection, hehee, probably bad C# code on my part though.

I couldn't do a AppGameKit server because it requires openGL and a lot of the VPS servers online for lease, don't support openGL since they don't have a real video card in the virtual system. Or something like that.

anywho

hmm good to know thanks.
Grayvyn im aiming at a 4 v 4 max server therefor i thought i could actually use simple network commands to create a server on one of the players device.

what i have come up with so far in matter of thinking it trough is :

1 player host a game
the game/server ip uploads itself into a server i would probably rent or something.. this server will just hold all the ip's of different games. nothing else.
7 other players can find them self in the game menu selecting from the list of servers it downloads into the device (pc)
then join... and have fun..


so can this be done ? creating a server on a client side ? i think Call of Duty did this sometime cant remember the correct game.
