| == How are the news.txt and map checksums computed? ==
| |
| They both use a CRC32 algorithm. The popular zlib library has these functions.
| |
| | |
| == Why do I get disconnected for no data? ==
| |
| Once you have entered an arena you must send position packets regularly to stay connected.
| |
| | |
| == Why do I sometimes get two position packets with the same timestamp? ==
| |
| Chances are you got two 0x05 weapon packets or one 0x05 weapon and a 0x28 position. It is possible to fire a weapon right after the client has just sent a position.
| |
| | |
| == Can I get LVZ by using the VIE protocol? ==
| |
| Yes, but you can either get all the LVZ, or none. You do not have a choice when it comes to optional LVZ. This currently only works on [[ASSS]]. See [[UDP Game Protocol|Game Protocol's]] login packet.
| |
| | |
| == Do file transfers use compression? ==
| |
| The news.txt and the map are sent by the server compressed with zlib. All other filetrans are uncompressed.
