it is a simple command for the start of the game;

ALLTILE ,[tile],[tile] ...

(doreach player

when sending a tile upsidedown, instead of keeping the rotation counterclockwise change it to it's mirror,
this will cause the left neighbour of RBG0 to always be G (no matter if upsidedown or not)
this will cause the right neighbour of RBG0 to always be B (no matter if upsidedown or not)
this will cause the top/ bot neighbour of RBG0 to always be R (no matter if upsidedown or not)

for rotation you can then use; .charAt(<>)

• top/bot: (0 + rotation) % 3
• right: (1 + rotation) % 3
• left: (2 + rotation) % 3

this is 100000% way more efficient when coding

when something happens that is interesting to all players connected to the server like:

SERVERMESSAGE : has joined

or

SERVERMESSAGE : [player] ... are waiting for a game

It was decided the move-command to be overloaded, the example does have it implemented in the correct way;

the command should be: MOVE [tile] [location]
so:

• when you play a tile you send for example: MOVE RGB0 5
• when you swap you send: MOVE RGB0
• when you skip you send: MOVE
