Hello. I just wanted to help people with multiplayer on smilebasic if they only have one 3ds or need help!Like if this helped MPSTART Starts a local connection
MPSTART (MAX PLAYERS),"(LOCAL NAME)"
  • Example
MPSTART 4,"ANYSTR"
(^What does that do?^) That example is allows 4-players connect to each other. They Can also only connect if all of their local names are anystr. MPEND Ends a local game.
MPEND
MPCOUNT Number of users in local game
PRINT MPCOUNT
(^What does this do^) It displays the amount of players. What the numbers mean: 1- 1 player 2- 2 player 3- 3 player 4- 4 player MPSEND Sends data to all users in local game
MPSEND "(Character String to send)"
Example:
MPSEND " HI"
(^What does this do?^) The example sends all players the message "hi" if they are all receiving. MPRECV OUT Receives data from MPSEND
MPRECV OUT SID,RCV$
Example:
MPRECV OUT SID,RCV$
PRINT SID;":";RCV$
