redrc HTTP is a protocol connecting to other nodes, whether internet, or within a local network of computers.--- ie: requests must leave the initiating node and connect outwards through physical modem or link switch. If you have multiple players on a heavy game, it can drain resources- "bottleneck". But direct PHP requests can remain internal within the same machine interacting with the API. No need to go the long route. It's an unnecessary trip if you can avoid it.
I know what HTTP is, I'm just not sure you know what you are talking about. But, it's fine, I said my piece.
redrc Can any one tell me why it's not saving/loading my high score?
Do you get any errors or warnings?
Also, when loading check first if the file exists before trying to open it, not the other way around.
