Re: [pygame] Re:[pygame] networking example

I found the twisted docs a bit hard to follow and wound up building
something on asynchat.

http://docs.python.org/lib/module-asynchat.html

Here is a simple example:
Server: http://rafb.net/p/kU58yg32.html
Client: http://rafb.net/p/sI2FRw42.html

   Starting with something like that it's just a matter of defining
your state machine and the messages you are going to send. Have your
client generate some pygame events, stick the client's asyncore.poll
in your pygame loop and away you go. I'm sure it's not very robust or
secure but it was a good way for me learn about network programming.
