»doc flabby Posted October 29, 2009 Report Posted October 29, 2009 I've created a program in VB to simulate LAG and packetloss, as well a couple of techniques to try and mitigate them both. So far I've added extrapolation, as you can see its not a complete solution. If a sudden change of direction occurs it struggles. In subspace the client knows exactly where all collisions will occur, so no sudden unpredictable change in direction are possible. I need to work out how to interpolate corrections in a good way (like subspace does) but hopefully this is a start. Controls WASD and E = unpredictable change of direction http://subspace2.net/sslagsimulation.zip Quote
L.C. Posted October 29, 2009 Report Posted October 29, 2009 This is a very cool program! Now I can show people what it feels like to play on satellite (1500ms to 3000ms latency). Quote

Aileron Posted October 31, 2009 Report Posted October 31, 2009 (edited) I don't get it. How do those lag simulators simulate the retarded whining used by players after I pwn them? All I see is mature math and graphs and stuff. Edited October 31, 2009 by Aileron Quote
