in thread Unusual(?) server

That's exactly what the "timestamp" and the "verify timeout loop" I mentioned are for?


Okay you lot, get your wings on the left, halos on the right. It's one size fits all, and "No!", you can't have a different color.
Pick up your cloud down the end and "Yes" if you get allocated a grey one they are a bit damp under foot, but someone has to get them.
Get used to the wings fast cos its an 8 hour day...unless the Govenor calls for a cyclone or hurricane, in which case 16 hour shifts are mandatory.
Just be grateful that you arrived just as the tornado season finished. Them buggers are real work.

    Wait, i don't understand how your "timestamp" and the "verify timeout loop" are suitable for client timeouts. Server can use this technique, fixing datagram's income, but clients?
    Only way see, if the server starts to send broadcast UDP packets too. Then clients will be be able to timeout due the server death.
