            Oh, remote procedure calls (also called remote scripting in this context); instead of requesting an entire frame's-worth of HTML, you'd be sending requests for data to the server and getting back just the data, and then using that returned data to alter only those bits of the page that actually need to be changed. Since you'd target the responses to a hidden frame or iframe, there's often no need to refresh the main screen at all.

            The code does get a bit more complicated, but with a decent RPC library (which I hope to have by the time I've finished all my current tinkering) the distinction between what's running on the server and what's running on the client becomes pretty blurred: functions on the client and functions on the server are regularly calling each other behind the scenes and to the user they together look like a single application.

              OK - so I'm not the brightest, but what are you supposed to do in this game? I clicked all over the place and it did SFA.

              Slow on the uptake of Berlin

                I want you to know that you've inspired me.

                  what do you do in the game....

                  Well, im basically trying to build a little world for it! Every item in the game basically needs to be either found ( the game world has a completely unique item system ) by killing monsters, or just plain walking around. Store owners in town with the right kind of shop can also make an base item in the game ( armor shops make armor, weapon shops make weapons, apothecary makes potions ).. Eventually you will be able to get items that enhance these base items. .but that's for later in the game!

                  Any player in teh game can open a store, so say someone goes out killing lots of bad guys and taking there stuff .. he can go back to town when he has enough gold, and open his own store and sell all teh crap he picked up.. or just sell it to any willing store in town. eh.

                  All the commodities in the game generate every night. .so there is an actual supply of everything.

                  All the monsters in the game are created uniquely and are given a somewhat random set of weapons and armor.. so there is also a daily ( or hourly ), depending on how i set the cron, limit of monsters. Each monster has a memory, and can actually level up if it kills enough people.

                  Hmmm .. so yeah, thats sorta the stuff the game is based on.. Eventually there will be quests and such.. we'll see what happens! Everything i think of turns it into a bigger and longer project!

                  ( right now i have the towns 90% finished, you can create stores, run them, make items, sell items. The movement system is done, and next im working on the monster system )

                    A friend and I were going to attempt something exactly like this a while ago. Unfortunately, our studies kind of put any chance of that onto the proverbial backberner. You have re-inspired me for this 😃

                    While I haven't viewed the game yet (our proxy blocks any url with "game" in it), it sounds like a real ripper.

                    Nice work.

                      haha crap.. what a hurting proxy 🙁

                      I can put a screen shot up if you'd like?

                        Heehee, I was on contract at one place a couple of years ago, their proxy blocked in both directions page requests and emails that contained the word "adult" in the URL or subject line.

                        It was a tertiary education institution.

                        Someone didn't quite think that one through far enough, methinks...

                          Now that I've had a chance to have a bit of a look at the game, I have to say that it's not bad at all. Took a while to get used to, but it's quite good.

                          Well done, keep it up 😃
