Multitasking and My Games

Hi, hows everything?

Today it is normal to someone to browser in 3 to 10 browser sessions or play while listen to music and reading e-mails... so that is that I got my problem.

The problem: when I change my tasks(Alt+tab/Ctrl+tab) from the game to other thing it just stop sending and receiving socketdata, in a way that when I change my tasks back to the game it tries to render every move done while I was not there and it get buggy until it syncs back with the server.

While out of sync it looks like a move in fast forward.

Any idea?

Velojet saw a post of yours talking about delay, is it the same?

If your talking about WebSocket, then that's part of the Websocket buffer in the browser. I don't know why, but unless the websocket app has focus, it just build up into the browser buffer. I'm hoping this is fixable in C2 though this is not to say C2 is the problem.

But it is a good question why does it buffer when the app doesn't have focus.

Anyone?

I will let you know when I find out myself. I agree anykind of build up of the buffer for online games is a bad thing. It can greatly distort the results. :(

Ok checkd it out. This may not be a WebSocket problem. Didn't test it out before, but C2 games seem to pause when not in the window :( if a fix is possible. This will be up to Ashley to give us. Hopefully the problem will be fixable :)
