Hello me and a couple of friends are going to make a "game" for a school project and have decided to use UDK but the problem i am trying to solve is how do we set it up so we can share the files among each other, right now i am trying out Bittorent Sync to share the files but how do we actually share the project? And if you know of any other programs i will definitely need to have it work please tell me :)

DropBox or Google Docs should allow you to share files from a "secure" cloud perspective.

You all get accounts. One of you sets up the repository and gives the others access. Viola!

Thanks for the quick answer.
But how do i actually make it possible for my friends to access the project? I am new to udk and have just kinda screwed around and figuring out the controls.

If you all install the app, you can save copies of your project files to the cloud service and then all can access them. You will not directly access each other's computers this way.

Check the app for its saved files location. Those are your working files. Copy those to make available.

Ideally for collaborating on code files you would use (and learn to use) some repository system such as SVN (it's easiest one) and Tortoise SVN.

Do i still need google drive then? Do you have to write a lot of code using UDK?

You don't need google drive for storing code if you use repository such as SVN.

As for amount of code, Unreal Engine 4 (not the UDK which is kinda deprecated now that Unreal Engine 4 is available) has something called Blueprints Visual Scripting where you use GUI for setting up core parts of the game: https://docs.unrealengine.com/latest/INT/Engine/Bluepri...
Also see some videos on Youtube.
