Can anyone give me a quick tutorial on some simple blitz networking? Like, sending text to another comp, or moving a sprite around on it's screen? Thanks, Will.

Think you have to wait for a network module or use the already existing BNet module created by "vertex". BNet has some examples and is realy easy to use. Works nice here but its Windows only and not an official module. It should be possible to create own network modules via BMax but you wont be happy figuring out how to setup sockets etc. (not simple commands like you had in B3D) .

Take a look at TStreams in the module reference. There *may* be something you can use there. -Jim
