Figure out networking. #12

Closed chadthecoder closed 11 months ago

chadthecoder commented 11 months ago

Add networking to asio folder. Purpose is to learn and eventually figure out how to create a game server for multiplayer.

Possibly helpful MIT licensed library?

Edit:

Solution?:

Use TCP for connection status now (possible chat later) and UDP for updating graphics later? Give info to server and server sends correct info back with udp. Use standalone asio.

Convert client to async as well? Convert server to call send even if doesn't always receive?
