OnlineGameMatchmaking
OnlineGameMatchmaking is a system that emulates the inner-workings of online multiplayer game match-making systems. The system follows a Client-Server Model where Server-Client communications are made via TCP sockets. Developed in the context of the Distributed Systems course at Minho University
The Matchmaking System should allow:
- User registration(username and password) and authentication
- Play a game (start the phase of matchmaking, team formation and hero pick).
- Team Formation
- Each team should have 5 players
- Each player should have a ranking
- The System chooses 10 players (maximum rank difference between players must no exceed one) and breaks them into two teams balanced by the average ranking of the players
- Hero pick
- There are 30 different hero's
- At any given time during the pick period, a player should be able to check the choices his teammates are making
- No two heroes of the same type should be allowed on the same team
- There's a 30s timeout period in which a player can change is pick
- After timeout period has ended, if all the players have successfuly chosen their hero the match starts, else the match ends prematurely
- If a match successfuly starts it's result is randomly generated and the players W/L values are updated accordingly
- Team Formation
Note: only the matchmaking functionality is implemented, not the game itself, the outcome of the matches is randomly generated and used to update user ranks.
