| Summary | 0021438: Multiplayer: faction desync repair. | ||||
| Description | For the main faction data (how much metal do I have, and other things like that), it doesn't really seem worth it for us to even do diffs to see if a desync is detected. We don't care, and the data is small enough not to matter. Some of the data, like the really faction-specific stuff for instance, is already host-only in terms of actually being used (that's the long term planning thread stuff). So that stuff we can just plain ignore. There's not much data to really sync at a faction level, aka not talking about ships, but the host should just periodically update all the clients with its versions of the data to keep everyone on the same page. If the host things that player A has X metal, and a client thinks that player A has Y metal instead, then that should get automatically corrected on the client within 1 second at most, and potentially just every "turn" (I think that's 400ms, IIRC). This is by far the easiest of the desync repair stuff. | ||||
