documentation for AS2 API really bad

I have no idea what to do.

Obviously I cannot just put NonobaAPI.SubmitScore(....) in my game and expect it to do anything.

I found the download api stuff, but really there should be a link and information about that on the documentation page.

And I have no idea how to implement that.

Now I found that ugly flash game that someone made that demonstrates how to do it.

You guys need to tell in the documentation that you need to put

import Nonoba.api.NonobaAPI

and tell that you need to go to the download section and download the api and then where to place it

it's expected that if you develop flash you understand importing classes.

also in the demo files there is "import Nonoba.api.*" to demonstrate that you should import the api.

or are you suggesting nonoba also provide tutorials on how to use flash for beginners?

I disagree. There is a whole lot of game developers that know nothing about importing classes and don't even know what a class is. Why would you want to exclude them from using nonoba? Other sites don't.

Most sites that offer you to upload games and implement their highscore system has proper guides on how to do it.

All nonoba had to do was to write in the beginning of the tutorial that you need to download the api found here (link) and put the specific line to import it, before submitting any scores.

It's a few lines, very simple and something that absolutely should be there.

And I don't see any demofiles anywhere.

they aren't excluded from using nonoba.

"Most sites that offer you to upload games and implement their highscore system has proper guides on how to do it. "
as does nonoba, both in documentation and in forums, which are open for questions.

wait... where are you saying this should go? in some sort of faq?

"What do I need to start developing a multiplayer game?
Just download the Nonoba Multiplayer API from our download section. You may also wish to read the documentation here."

"And I don't see any demofiles anywhere."
they come in the zip file.
