Not "Just Another" MMORPG - text based.


Posted on 16th Feb 2014 07:03 pm by admin

Hello,

I've been learning MySQL and PHP for the last 2-3 years.
Though, I've had long pauses and months without touching PHP.
Did you know?Explore Trending and Topic pages for more stories like this.

Now, I started at a new school this autumn, and I found that some of my old school mates, which I hadn't seen for a while, wanted to make a online text based game.
They said that I could join the project, because they needed a scripter, as none of them could script (only designers).

We got project plans, a small budget (for hosting + domain(s)) and a good team of designers, managers, etc.

Now, I've been analyzing and playing other text based games for years as I find them entertaining.
But now the question for me is:

How should this be done?
Should I use PHP OOP? I've never tried it, and I don't know why I should use it either, so therfor I ask you.
Should I use cronjobs? I've read that cronjobs is mostly for games with small databases, as a cronjob on a large database could take hours before it's finished.

I know that a lot of people asks about MMORPG text based games.
I would say that the difference between me and "a lot of them" is that I got a lot of programming experience already. I just need to know how to optimize and structure the website.
