Hi everyone,
I'm stuck in a project and could really need some guidance.
The Concept: Using Processing i want to create a giant 2D Pong-like game that will be played around a huge-building (led-walls^^) and controlled by two TouchScreen-SmartPhones that should be somewhat connected to my sketch.
So far: All the communication between sketch and building are done. My main problem is: how do I control the sketch (the two players) with two Smartphones that are not in the same network?
For some reason i simply didn't get Processing Android to work properly (after hours of trying and searching the web i now want to try something else) The idea is now, that i use html5 page, specifically created for two android-Phones that give me the touch position on screen (that already works too) and - now I’m stuck - send that data to my Processing sketch so that they control player 1 and 2. Maybe it would also work if i can somehow make Processing to read a simple txt file in which the player positions are saved (every some milliseconds^^)??
I'm no network-technician so i would really appreciate some simple idea on how to make my android devices control that sketch(if possible not via processing for android - really hate that thing ;)
Thanks in advance!!
