This is my online engine. It includes the engine, a Kirby Online (platformer) example from myself and a Racer Online (racing game) example from Marbs.
Please read the READ ME.txt file when you download this before doing anything else.
If you want to host a game online so that other people can connect to you, you have to forward the ports used by the server. Check the Create event of obj_server in the server file for the ports.
If you have any ideas, suggestions and/or comments, then leave a comment .
Happy online-game-making!
You should change the Game ID of your online game from the original. To change it go to Global Game Settings -> Loading. If you do change it, make sure both your server and client have the same one. If you want to change the ports the server uses, go to Portforward.com to get help with forwarding different ports.
Online Engine V2:
This is the second version of my online engine. The new features are:
Account System
Server chat commands (See Below)
The engine now works with the newest version of 39DLL.
Server chat commands:
/help - Shows a list of all the commands and what they do
/players - Shows a list of all the currently connected players with their usernames and IDs
/kick playerid - Kicks the player with the same playerid
/ban playerid - Bans the player with the same playerid
/unban username - Unbans the account with the same username
Please note that the examples (Racer Online and Kirby Online) have not been updated to work with the newest version of the engine.

I couldn't get any of the server commands to work on the kirby example. All they did was show the words /kick player in red instead of kicking the player whose id was "player"....
