I'm not sure what you mean exactly. Is important that gibs are removed for everyone - maybe story related? Here are two ways I can think of doing it. *Starting: If gib position does not matter: The client sends that it gibbed a model. The server recieves and transmits to all other clients to gib that model. The clients gib that model. The gib positions vary from client to client. Their movements are not sent to the server. If gib position does mater: The client sends that it gibbed a model. The server recieves and transmits to all other clients to gib that model. The server then updates them with the gib models positions each time they move. *Removal: Client-Side: You could leave them laying there on the ground or have them removed, set to a timer, on the client-side. Maybe make the gib removal an option on the client-side. Server-Side: You could leave them laying there on the ground or have them removed - set to a timer - on the server-side. Then the server tells the clients to remove the gibs. This could only be an admin option/server comand. FYI; I have followed this mail list for a while but I'm not an expert yet so take that into your consideration. -Nate ----- Original Message ----- From: Mukkan Yhtiö<mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: [email protected]<mailto:[email protected]> Sent: Sunday, February 25, 2007 5:36 AM Subject: Re: [hlcoders] Gibbing Ragdolls But what about when it comes to removing the ragdoll from everyones screens; sure the gib effect will be server-side but unless ragdolls are set serverside then the removal of the ragdoll will be client side right? That's my main worry. >From: "Nathan Voge" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]<mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]>> >Reply-To: [email protected]<mailto:[email protected]> >To: <[email protected]<mailto:[email protected]>> >Subject: Re: [hlcoders] Gibbing Ragdolls >Date: Sun, 25 Feb 2007 00:47:11 -0600 > >This is a multi-part message in MIME format. >-- >[ Picked text/plain from multipart/alternative ] >My thoughts are, unless you need all of the gibs to be positioned the same >for everyone, the only thing needed on the server would be the relay to >each player that is has gibbed.
