...becoming skilled is a legitimate pursuit that is challenging, rewarding and respected by others; gamers are brought up out of the gutter and made into stars, teams, friends, and their discourse rises with them.

Read on: http://forestjohnson.blogspot.com/2009/09/method-for-networking-state.html


I hope I actually get time to work on that some time btw.. I think ESPORTS has room for and could benefit greatly from some good indie games.

Good read. I too would like to make a living out of making RTS games...

The ICCup version of starcraft includes a hack that forces the game to never slow down or introduce an artificial latency with unit commmands, however this can cause the game state to become grossly desynchronized and introduce artifacts like teleporting units in some cases.


i dont think this has ever happened

I seem to remember Idra or someone bitching about playing vs a top chinese player under laggy conditions with lan latency on and having scourge hit his shuttle / dropship from about 5 tiles away, but I have actually never seen it happen. The most interesting networking glitch I've seen is a siege tank shooting a zealot as it runs up to attack, and hitting the zealot at the same time that the zealot reaches the tank.

Yeah I've had this happened too. Lag spikes where scourges will hit your science vessels from far away or irradiates going off after 3 seconds

The jumpy stuff just happens when the latency setting is too low, it can happen on bnet too (just not as often, since bnet's lowest latency setting is around 500ms). All the latency plugin does is lower the latency setting, which just hides the effects of lag less.

If you have a shitty connection to your opponent, weird things will happen regardless. :p

When I micro, I do so really really fast a lot of times. clicking zerglings around trying to surround and move and attack repeatedly. SO MANY TIMES when I do this it will cause the units to just freeze (that dumb glitch where units don't respond to commands) until I spam S or H a few times and then run away. Which causes me to lose the surround or lose like half my lings.
This happens on b.net and I'm pretty sure It's happened with Lan Latency Chaos launcher too.

Also, I have had a drone teleport to make a structure on b.net.


Btw, What is the difference in latency when you use #LL, #L1, and #L2 I always use L2 unless the person lives close to me (don't even know if i'm doing it right).
..and then I would, ya know, check em'. (Aka SpoR)
