Question

Hi I am coding small game in xna, i finished client side nad now doing server. But server is a console while client xna application. I use the same model based on managers.

Now i need to make update of my managers in server side while my manager take as parameter gateTime,what can i do to pass gateTime in loop in server console application? manually calculate how much time pased since last loop turn? In console i don’t even see GameTime to crate it and pass to model manager.

You can use a structure similar to what XNA creates, ignoring the Draw()ing part. The code is already there, just remove what you will not use and the gameTime will be there.

You can and should reuse all the code you can, if it doesn’t brick your program or make it harder to work on it and mantain.
