I'm currently working on a javaJava MMO with a pretty solid start, but I've come across an issue I need a little help with.

I'm working on player position'spositions. Meaning theretheir X/Y on the screen, if the PlayerA has a higher FPS  (Frames Per Second) thenthan other players, the resulting action will be that PlayerA will move faster than everyone else. I know the reasoning for this, it's because when the game draws I just use: x++;x++.

What would a better method be?
