dedBuNNy: Sure could, but the skipping and stuttering that's going on these days, is mostly a result of connection issues. Dirty connection, packets being dumped everywhere, Jitter, bad hops... connection issues. Those connection issues can also be on your end, bad router/modem.
Again, I respectfully disagree as there is no communication from the game client to the internet or to the game client from the internet while the meter is active. On the backswing or the downswing.
Tested on Skype with a friend changing his status. Normally, just waiting on a tee, friend changes status and about a second later I see it change. But when either I start the swing or let the meter run no status change happens until the swing is complete. Holding the backswing makes the test easier. Try it.
No... There is communication between the two, there has to be, it's how the target/positioning works within the client window. If there was no continuing/live communication and it was only initiated upon your final mouse click at which point all shot parameters where sent / results received this game would be unplayable.
The player status 'window' is separate from the client window. Its funny because you can mouse over the players and you get the roll-over state in the 'window' but you can also activate your shot from that spot as well, you can't activate player details. So what that tells me as that although the interaction is intact, it's not receiving status updates as it's the client/target window which has communication priority.
With Flash, there is usually a dozen different ways to achieve the same results etc.. It's really impossible to tell for sure what is going on without having someone come in here and saying... or sending construction files.
**On a side note, as I went in just now to check something out, I did something with the mouse I've not tried before - makes hitting closer to the ding way easier - well for me anyway. In my mind it might be a result of bad coding as I would have checked for it, so I'm not going to say here as I don't want them to take it out. LoL
I mean it might be something some players know about and wgt don't care, but if not, I'm not saying as it makes my shooting easier. If you want to know PM me and I'll tell you. It's not like it auto-dings or anything, just makes it easier to click I find.
*** On a side-side note, this is my last post. I told them I'd stop posting in here. So.. Uhm, ya... retired.... and 'being nice' hahahaha
