How do you make a multiplayer game?

I want to make a multiplayer game, but don`t know how. Ive seen videos and projects, but they are all too complicated. Is there an easier way? (No,right?)
SO ANNOYING!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Well, if there is no easy way, just tell me more about Operators, or Variables. I have used them, but not in a complicated way. Please help!

I would suggest that if you're still learning about operators and variables you're perhaps not ready for the complexity of multiplayer - be patient, you'll get there.

Is there anything in particular you find difficult with operators or variables?

Sorry, but there are no easy ways, only complicated ones.
Operators are math blocks.
Variables store values, strings or numbers.

Answer: Well, variables and operators are easy, but I just don`t know how to use them properly in a multiplayer game. But, I do know what each block means.

You're probably moving the cursor too much when adding Scratchblocks. If it's not between the pair of scratchblock markers then adding any more Scratchblocks will create another pair and they won't joined up. Practice in the sticky topic if need be.

I'm not sure a simple example of how to use a variable really gets us anywhere. You need to look at the projects I linked to and see if any of it makes any sense to you.
