I have a board game I created and recently turned into script.

It is currently two player on the same computer.

I would like to make it two players over the internet.

But I have no idea what to start researching.

Can someone point me in the right direction?

This is great Topher. I suggest you post a link to the corresponding post in Example Scripts. I am not the person to give advice on making an online version. The first thing I would consider is which language would be most suitable. Manadar has a lot of knowledge in that area. Perhaps javascript could be used for the front end, but as I said, I'm no expert.

You need to write a server that will handle all of the clients actions.

Client (Player 1) -> Server -> Client (Player 2).

It requires a completely different architecture because the server has to update the clients, or rather, the clients will request the updates from the server; look into the TCP functions.
