Version 1.3x - Multiplayer Testing

[King Rob]

I think this may be suffering from the host damage bug that NSGP has. I have a video see how quick I get eliminated

I did shoot you multiple times tho, lol. I recorded it too so I'm gonna resize it

1st race - 4 people, so much lag and jumpiness that it was impossible to play.

2nd race - 2 people, was out front so seemed to miss a lot of the action, but played ok.

3rd race - 2 people, stayed back, was jumpy but just about playable. Then Memory leaked, and I had to shut down.

being in Australia, I'm your worst case scenario for latency/lag. my response times were at about 420ms. The game has to be able to cope with this level, because even in a best case scenario there will be 300-350ms latency (light can only travel so fast....).

I'm being critical now because knowing the exposure this has on Steam, people who are a lot more critical and a lot less patient and forgiving will say a lot worse.

Video of my race with you and Rob (from my POV ofc): http://www.megaupload.com/?d=SL7TN2YX or http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=anSbgNBGmBc

edit: hmm my latency value was between 90-100ms, normal for somebody who has 7mbps upload but is 2 rooms away from the router (connection has only got 3 bars) and for somebody who's connecting to an island...

Ok things from my end:

Second video is still processing but will be here:

Cookie, with all due respect, you DO know how far Australia is from Europe?

Light can only travel so fast. Do the math.

A newer version in the first post, but I'm still looking into the mem-leak issue.

Found a big (new) bug in v1.21, so check top post for 1.22.

Version 1.23:

This should fix the infinite weapon loop - I hope!

Haven't had a chance to try the Multiplayer version yet, should I record my POV also?

Could be useful if you find a silly bug. You up for racing?

I'll be on every now or then... no certain times though, I have a silly schedule to go with my silly ways of life.

How do I go about adding electrical gates to my tracks?

They are in the Track Objects (but not very clear).
