Pretty interesting, Jay. So you have this script running as others
interface
with all the other stuff in the site? Just another question, you start
it via
web like a common script, but it is only accessed by you and it keeps on
running? The server doesn't kill it if it keeps running indef

PHP is server script and you would need
Check PHP-CLI ( Command line interface )
You can run php script without client request. For
example :
/usr/local/bin/php -f /path_of_your_script/game.php

Hi Rob, thanks for your answer. Let me see if I got it right, I would use

First thanks for your answer and your help. I would like to explore this
concept
of using the PHP. I mean, I've already coded some small games in C++,
and
implementing a game loop is kinda easy, since you have the control of
all the
data being processed. But PHP scripts, as I currently kn

This should be written in C or C++, compiled... You can run this using
PHP of course, and run it from command line/shell, but PHP isnt ideal

Hi there,
I'm developing an online game (using PHP+MySQL, and being totally interfaced via
web) which needs to have a "game cycle" running. For example, the player is

keep "moving the plane" forward (i.e. updating po
