Socket Based TicTacToe

Overview

This Python project implements a TicTacToe game using socket communication. It consists of two main files: ServerClient.py and Client.py. The ServerClient.py file hosts the TicTacToe game and acts as the server, allowing players to connect and play as the host. On the other hand, the Client.py file connects to the host server to play the game as a client.

Requirements

All requirements should already be installed on your device when Python is installed, but if for some reason they are missing this are the ones i use:

pip install threading pip install socket

Usage

To play the TicTacToe game:

1. Run ServerClient.py to host the game.
2. Before running Client.py, make sure to edit the file and replace "IP-ADDRESS-HERE" in the connectToGame() function with the host's local IP address. (The Local-IP Address will be displayed inside of the ServerClient.py's Terminal)
3. Run Client.py to connect to the hosted game and play as a client.

Features

• Socket-based communication for multiplayer functionality.
• Support for hosting and joining games.
• Clear console interface for displaying the TicTacToe board.
• Error handling for invalid inputs and game termination.

Future Improvements

• Add Server.py for standalone host.
• Add support for multiple concurrent games on the server.
• Improve error handling and input validation.
