LÖVECÖNN sounds awesomesauce. I suggest starting documentation right now, before it gets too big :)

Wait, wait ... I got it.

LUBE -- Because it makes networked data transfers more smooth. (Or if you really want: LÜBE). Also, it makes the Lua module name less horrible:

Code: Select all

r = lube.listen(80)
-- vs
r = loveconnection.listen(80)

Ok added LUBE, sorry for the one who voted already.
Unless someone's got a REAL good idea, I'm not going to change the poll again.

I'd normally vote for LÖVECÖNN because it looks just nice, but rude's argument is cogent.

And also it reminds me my favourite Russian band ЛЮБЭ.

Code: Select all

Vote LUBE!

Added binary packing lib.

Remember as I have nothing to test this with, it is untested :roll:
However if you do test this please post your results

Ok, before putting that one in I need two votes (just post them).

And I know you guys are busy (election day..), however I do need some input (just like a program :D) to make the lib whatever YOU want it to be.
I don't know what you need!

Wow... I made some big mistakes...
Anyway, I created a little server and client and because of that I was able to do some testing, which meant that I'd see all my mistakes.
Fixed!

I'd really like to help you but i have no abilities or time. I'm aware that I'm not helping you by just talking about it but anyway:

Is it really necessary to have a real game. Can't anybody just write some kind of library testing app with poor text input/output and simple tasks like chat, positions of players, Tic-tac-toe etc?
