How to send a message to the server

Questions & Answers
1

HI,

I want to have some clients and a server all running android. I want to connect all the clients to the server.
The clients will have a timer running on them, the servers job will be to show the status of what the clients are doing. I want to be able to send messages from the clients to the server about what it is doing. Is there a way to do this ?

Here is what i have so far but i am unable to catch the message on the server object.

Here is the clients code

using UnityEngine;
using System.Collections;
using UnityEngine;
using UnityEngine.Networking;

class RegisterHostMessage : MessageBase
{
public float message;
}

public class Client : MonoBehaviour {

NetworkClient myclient;
public UnityEngine.UI.Text conText;
public static short clientID = 123;

// Use this for initialization
void Start () {
	SetUpclient ();
}

// Update is called once per frame
void SetUpclient () {
	myclient = new NetworkClient ();
	myclient.RegisterHandler (MsgType.Connect, OnConnected);
	myclient.Connect ("10.244.144.201", 4444);

}

public void OnConnected(NetworkMessage netMsg)
{
	RegisterHostMessage msg = new RegisterHostMessage ();
	msg.message = 12.45f;
	conText.text = "Connected to server";

	myclient.Send (clientID,msg);
}

}

Here is the server’s code.

using UnityEngine;
using System.Collections;
using UnityEngine;
using UnityEngine.Networking;

public class Master : MonoBehaviour {

public UnityEngine.UI.Text masterip;

// Use this for initialization
void Start () {
	SetUpServer ();
}

void SetUpServer()
{
	NetworkServer.Listen (4444);
	masterip.text = Network.player.ipAddress;

}

public void OnCommandSent(NetworkMessage netMsg)
{
	Debug.Log (netMsg);

}

}

Any help will be good.

Hi Mark, on the method SetUpServer, before NetworkServer.Listen (4444);, put: NetworkServer.RegisterHandler(123, OnCommandSent);

to define the Register para receber a mensagem recebida para o ID 123.
