LÖVE

So, lets say I used someone's mod, to use mics, and wanted to connect to a server, on client code, how would I do that? The only way I've been told, is FTP. But, would file transportation protocol really be secure, and LOGICAL? And, if you have a different solution, can you please explain how to use it, along with lua code examples, with both client and server side code. Thanks!

what is mics ?

FTP is to put or get file to or from a server.
It is secure if you use FTPS.

I don't know what kind of connection you want.
If it has to be rapid like in a game you must use UDP protocol ( it sends message and nothing else), a tutorial is available on the wiki.
Otherwise you can use TCP protocol ( it opens a connection, then you can transfer data, and close the connection. to slow for games but very efficient for other use, FTP use TCP protocol.)

There is a thingy here (I don't know how to use): viewtopic.php?f=5&t=79313
And, I was talking about microphones.
I want to make game updates easy(probably FTP), microphone conferences, and live chat. How would I make a client-to-server connection implementing these 3 things?

1. updates: HTTP or FTP server with anonymous access. You don't need FTPS or SFTP because you only read the files.
2. Microphone: custom UDP server or pre-existing solution. You will need strong lossy connection to minimize data and time overhead
3. Chat: custom solution (TCP echo server) or just use XMPP, IRC etc.

You would need to implement your own network protocol, or use existing one. The simplest solution would be sending/receiving raw audio samples over the net using for example enet.
