How to comunicate with replit/other code editors from wick

[Jordy]

So I was wondering if theres a way to make wick send data like a stored variable for example maybe a username variable, could you make wick send that info to replit? or maybe other types of stuff.

You can try using a single-frame timeline and its default code and children symbols with more frames for accomplishing this. Or you mean XHR (AJAX)?

[Jordy]

this is not what I was trying to ask because I already know how to use variables even without a single frame but what I was trying to ask here was if I could send data to replit and store it there too

I updated my comment wondering if you meant to use XHR (XML HTTP Request) API from the Web Browser. Do you also need HTML input?

Yes I’m trying to get wick to send variable data and retrieve data too and maybe html inputs too aswell as trying to use other programming languages maybe to be able to do stuff you can’t do in js

If you want to use something like a replit server I did make a post on how you can do that

Online multiplayer code

Using some code from pumpkinhead’s multiplayer game I have made some code to help make your own multiplayer game. To use it you can start by forking this repl (or make an account first). Then you can follow instructions starting on line 21 to add variables to be sent from and to clients. If you aren’t exactly sure what to do this repl has two variables x and y for you to see how to add your own. Then click this button (in the circled area) [image] Then in box 1 put serverKey and in box 2 …

Plus replit has a database thing although I don’t know a whole lot about how that works

replit

Hi,

As @SomeoneElse linked to, communicating with servers is very well possible in wick, so no problem there

But I’m very curious as to what you want to do (in wick) that cannot be done in JS?

it’s more about what replit can do and what wick can’t (or at least, what we haven’t been able to do in pure wick). replit lets us make cloud multiplayer, so if we link together replit and wick, we can make cloud multiplayer projects.
