Feature/Remote players

[linhtng]

Each player is located on a separated computer, accessing the same website and playing the same Pong game. Copilot overview of step breakdown: Django Backend:

• Set up your Django backend to handle multiplayer interactions. You’ll need to manage player sessions, game state, and communication between clients.

• Use WebSockets for real-time communication. Pay attention to handle asynchronous events efficiently.

  Frontend:

• In your frontend code, create a WebSocket connection to the Django backend. This connection will allow real-time communication between players.
• When a player joins the game, send their unique identifier (e.g., username or session ID) to the backend.
• Listen for game updates (e.g., ball position, paddle movement) from the backend via the WebSocket connection.
• Update the game state on the frontend based on the received data.

Game Logic:

• Ensure that both players’ browsers receive the same game updates simultaneously. For example, when one player moves their paddle, broadcast that action to all connected clients.

Nginx Configuration:

• Set up Nginx as a reverse proxy to handle WebSocket connections.
• Configure Nginx to forward WebSocket requests to your Django backend.
• Make sure your Nginx configuration allows WebSocket traffic by adding the necessary proxy headers.

Testing:

• Test the game locally with two separate browsers (or devices) to simulate remote players.
• Deploy your application to a server accessible over the internet (e.g., using a domain or IP address).
• Have players connect to the same URL from different computers to play together.
