Darkplaces latency.

Postby Orion » Wed Feb 06, 2008 2:16 am

Hello, I was playing the latest DP and I seen my ping over 40 in a local host... Is there a way or command to get zero ping as any other engine?

Thanks.

ping = ((sys_tickrate>framerate)?(1000/sys_tickrate):(1000/framerate)) + latency

chances are you only had 40fps at the time you noticed that high ping.

DP has server and client properly split up. Its just one frame.

The current stable (Nov 20 2007) shows ping as 33 (sys_ticrate is 0.0333) 99% of the time when hosting a server. It's not correct for obvious reasons. Euroquakers shouldn't ping below 100 on my home servers :P

WhiteHot is currently hosting a recent beta (20080222beta1.zip) which doesn't show ping at all or shows up as 0 for other clients.

edit: I should add that these DP servers are running under the QUAKE protocol.
