This isn't completely flash-related, but it is kinda, so...
I'm trying to make a MMO game using flash, but I'm having some trouble. My problem is this: I want to start the rounds with no land, just a map of sea. My idea is that players can create land theirselves. The problem with this being is that I don't know how to store this land data. If I use a database, it will require a huge table and take forever to load. If I use an XML file, then only one player can write data to it at a time. I'm really stuck. If you can help, please reply.
Thanks in advance!
