Another phantom e-mail (Tony's) that I never received. :-s Where do they go?
I've worked out how to add to the UserCmd now, so I'll stick with that
as it's less traffic. The only oddity is that I have keep the sending
the data over until I've had confirmation that the slot has been cleared
serverside, else for some reason the command doesn't always get through.
I end up sending the slot integer in around ten usercmds - many more if
I use fakelag.
Perhaps one possible cause is that the function I'm using, CreateMove(),
is called more often than usercmds are sent?
