php - Is it safe to use a MySQL database for recording positions on a multiplayer game? -

-

would safe use mysql database record positions of players on screen?

then second, flash retrieves new position data in database , sets players' positions of map new positions?

i'm not sure how slow be.

i know php. know sql. not experienced in actionscript, can basic things set positions of objects. not know how retrieve information database via flash. not know how make flash send out queries.

do think give me bit of help?

it safe use mysql. but, wouldn't recommend using php + mysql game server though, or server tend lock influx of requests. http protocol not designed this.

it might take bit of time, learn easy programming language (especially java or c#) create basic server. can store user information within ram, instead of accessing database repeatedly. but, have server updates database every n amount of minutes, in case server shutdown , needs started same data.
