[Newbies] Network Game - Server Client Approach

[Martin Bleichner]

Hello again,

I am making some slow progress. Well, I managed to run an example :)

I run on one image the OldSocket example remoteTestServerUDP and on a second
the remoteTestClientUDP. I hope that is the right direction so far.
my transcript tells me that server and client endpoints are created, and
some packets are sent.

I get the following message:
4000 bytes/packet, 117packets/sec, 2370 packets dropped.

he shouldn't drop packages, shouldn't he?

Further, the image running the server is not responsive any more (does not
react to anything). Is that how it is supposed to work?

Thanks for your help.
Martin
