Whoa DT, don't be that angry, I didn't intend to flame and I did not call you a noob. "Newbie" is my nickname (as you can probably see in From field of this e-mail) and it's a long story how I got it. Excuse me if I made you think that I call you a noob, yet again, this was not my intention.
Coming back to the topic, please take your time to read http://developer.valvesoftware.com/wiki/Source_Multiplayer_Networking - it's all there, clear and simple, describing how networking works in Source, how lag compensation is implemented, etc. I just don't see the point in copy-pasting the whole article here.

Well I've only been playing since '99 with beta .9. I guess that is why your calling me newbie? Because I've only seen it happen a million times. I say it does and it is a matter of common sense. You have the server (1 computer) that is interacting with let's say 30 clients. So 29 of those are running at a ping rate of under 50 and 1 at 300. Your telling me that when I hit the 300 ping guy with 3 hs in a row that he's 300 ping has registered my hits? Or that his 1 hs on me 300 ms ago would not affect the other 4 people that are shooting at him at the same time? Like in a room with 6 people all shooting at each other. The server has to register all hits. Since his are registering 6 times later than the rest of ours, the server has to "lag" to update "all" of the information. I tell you what REAL NOOB, you show me how it's possible NOT to lag with the situation that I just explained? Oh! and the 56 k'ers can go to a server where there are other 56 K'ers just like I did when I was on modem. Why am I and the other 28 guys who have broadband penalized because 1 Austrian guy wants to play with us instead of his own kind? I am eagerly anticipating your reply so we can see who the real NOOB is. -- No virus found in this outgoing message. Checked by AVG Free Edition.
