It takes 2 or 3 seconds I think "to build up", and after that "warming up" period it works great and is more responsive.

For example, that is fixed, no more "wasted time", so no more "gratuitous latency".  That was just a mishandling of the socket.  That "warming up" was related to OS buffers, like I said in one post, but was caused by mishandling the socket buffer.  Performance-wise:  I activated the FPS counter,  I uncapped FPS , I tried to reach more than 60 FPS but I couldn't (maybe my driver in linux is not uncapped or I didn't set vsync off ... I really didn't attack the "60 FPS problem")  what I wanted to see if this code was affecting FPS in any way and I found it does not.  Maybe 2 or 3 FPS , but that's not a big performance penalty.  I would need to try that by slowing the game FPS (forcefully), simulating a slower hardware, and try it going on 30 FPS to see if it is more affected.  Anyways, any other users testing it would be something good.

Right now, I  really don't know if Windows will have its own performance issues when porting this.  Because I made use of some features of sockets that maybe are linux-only or maybe not.  I didn't get there yet.  I hope I don't crash with a wall when I decide to port it to windows just because of "sockets stuff".

      Does anyone actually use the Normalise button in the Surface inspector? Even after looking at the code I'm not quite sure what it's for.

      Turns out my 15th anniversary mission idea has already been done once or twice before! I've been beaten to the punch once again, but I suppose that's to be expected when there's over 170 FMs out there, eh? I'm not complaining though, I love learning new tricks and taking inspiration from past FMs. Best of luck on your own fan missions!

      I wanna play Doom 3, but fhDoom has much better features than dhewm3, yet fhDoom is old, outdated and probably not supported. Damn!
      Makes me think that TDM engine for Doom 3 itself would actually be perfect.

      Maybe a bit of advice ? In the FM series I'm preparing, the two main characters have the given names Toby and Agnes (it's the protagonist and deuteragonist, respectively), I've been toying with the idea of giving them family names as well, since many of the FM series have named protagonists who have surnames. Toby's from a family who were usually farriers, though he eventually wound up working as a cobbler (this serves as a daylight "front" for his night time thieving). Would it make sense if the man's popularly accepted family name was Farrier ? It's an existing, though less common English surname, and it directly refers to the profession practiced by his relatives. Your suggestions ?

      Looks like the "Reverse April Fools" releases were too well hidden. Darkfate still hasn't acknowledge all the new releases. Did you play any of the new April Fools missions?
