Well for this particular prototype i'm working on, not much i must say... Ultimately though, the projects we have on the line would greatly benefit from rails, but if we go that route, i need to be able to rely solely on rails for all the business logic, and a lot of it deals with elements/events from the game component. Eventually i hope to be able to handle 3d objects much like dom elements of the page. Anyway, right now i'm merely trying to find out how to establish a solid 2 way communication between the game engine and a rails back-end (the game engine can also execute internal code, by calling a JS function of its wrapper). But i'm failing to see if this can be handled purely in rails, or if i'll need to write some vanilla JS to act as a sort of middleware layer. I really hope i can pull it off somehow, cause i really don't wanna spend the next 6 months writing php code... ^^ -- Posted via http://www.ruby-forum.com/. --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Ruby on Rails: Talk" group.
