This is a contiunation of https://www.daniweb.com/software-development/java/threads/484036/java-network-game-keeping-track-of-a-player-turn#
Right now my server will read for incoming connections from the clients.
if it reaches 3, it will break off from the while loop and any more clients connected
after that will be refused. I set the first player by doing this.
game.currentThread = clientThreadList.get(0);
In my Game class I have a method nextTurn(ClientThread clientThread) which will set the player turn from player 0 to player 1.
ClientThread currentThread;
public synchronized void nextTurn(ClientThread clientThread) {
currentThread = clientThreadList.get(1);
System.out.println(currentThread);
}
I am not sure whether what I have done is correct, if I on the right track,
I now some more help on how to change the player's turn dynamically. instead of hard coding
currentThread = clientThreadList.get(1) in the nextTurn(ClientThread clientThread) because this
will only change the player turns from 0 to 1.
