Unless my math is really wrong. Using my code is 1cc and 1 byte more optimized. Kinda moot but just putting that out there in the thread.
hopefully that chart helps you tho lincolnB

Alright, thanks. I'll be sure to check that out. How does this flowchart relate to the other one, can it be a complete replacement? Like, do I need to use the other one at all, or is this one complete?

the first flow chart you used is the model for sending and receiving frames. the one i just linked is for setting up a peer to peer network within calcnet. so you need both as one is just initialization the other is what you use when actually handling data

OK, so all I need to add is in the //program inits line, where I would set the respective memory areas to the sending and receiving calc's IDs?

So the pseudo-pseudocode would look something like this:
.prgmTEST
#Axiom(GCNAXE)
//2nd flowchart here
Repeat getkey(15)
//1st flowchart here
//other game code
End

.prgmTEST

while !GetR
asm(76)
end
//save id and quit to the next step in teh flow chart

What does Asm(76) do?
EDIT: Also, I'm looking at that second flowchart, on the Client side; there's a line that's confusing me. It says, "Save ID and send frame back". Would that look something like this?
Copy(RXID,OTDAT,5
5->{TXID+2}
SetS

yes but that would work. really all you are doing there is sending an ack to the calc that is broadcasting so it knows you exist

This is a bit off-topic, but I noticed that your assembly file for the Axiom is named gcn.asm. This is incorrect - you have made a CALCnet axiom. Calculators are (just about) never aware if they're communicating over CALCnet or gCn, since gCn is supposed to be entirely transparent to calculators. A half-hearted analogy would be Ethernet/ TCP/IP = CALCnet2.2, "the internet" (ie, its global infrastructure of satellites, fiber, copper, etc) = globalCALCnet. All a computer knows is that it's talking TCP/IP to something else, without knowing all the details of whether the other computer is on the end of a 3-foot Ethernet cable or thousands of miles of infrastructure.

how do you broadcast directly across the link port? Also, what are the values in RCVID and SNDID used for?

you don't need to send stuff over the link port lincoln calcnet does that for you.
RCVID is the person who will receive the data being sent
SNDID IS the person who sent you data

So in a two player game, RCVID and SNDID will have the same value?

Actually, I think that RCVID and SNDID are reverse of what you said, because I can use {°RCVID + 6} to access the byte containing the recieve data flag.
But yes, setting the send flag tells CALCnet to broadcast across the link port, and resetting the recieve flag tells CALCnet that it's OK to accept a new recieve frame. In another context of "broadcast", If SNDID contains all zeroes, the frame sent is a "broadcast" frame that anyone can get, but there is no guarantee that any of the calcs will recieve it, so you should keep track of the other player's ID as soon as they get it and use that to send directed frames, which will only reach that calc and are far more likely to get there.
Out of curiosity, Kerm, does the current CALCnet protocol have a timer variable (one that is incremented by 1 every time the interrupt is run)? If not, is there a way that the 84 Plus crystal timers can work with CALCnet?

I'm not entirely sure what you're asking. You can indeed use the crystal timers with CALCnet, or at least two of the three (or maybe it's one?). If I recall my USB code correctly, and it's been quite some time since I touched it, one or two timers are required for part of the Direct USB system. I'll have to double-check my code and get back to you on that. I'm not sure what you're asking about the timer variable, though, unless you're saying that you want your program to know when the interrupt has executed, in which case I'd have to ask why.

compy it very well might be i will post an updated and proofreaded readme before I sleep tonight as I am not home to work on it currently. It will also have a updated lib file called GCNLib (yes Kerm I know you want it to be cn2 which is what I will name it when its out of beta  ) which will change the names around slightly to have TX and RX prefixes instead of SND and RCV just easier for me. you can really change them to what ever you want I don't care

Mind posting your code?

So what happens if RCVID and SNDID are filled with 5 bytes of zeros?

ok sndid should never be filled with 5 0's thats pointless
rcvid when that is filled with 5 0's calcnet will send the data you have loaded to everyone. not just a specific endpoint
so say we had 3 calcs on the network
11111
22222
33333
if you filled rcvid with 22222 on calculator 11111 only 22222 will get the frame 33333 will ignore it
now if you filled rcvid with 00000 on calculator 11111 both 33333 and 22222 will get the data IF they are able to accept data. unlike a non braodcast frame it will not poll until it is sent it just sends it once and assumes the data got where it was intended to go
