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".

      So on a regular basis I try to start building something in Darkradiant but very quickly I loose interest and give up.
      I tend to
      create a room, position an ai in it (or first ai, then room, probably better) put a light in it Put some stuff in it test the room in tdm Now I had this new idea:
      Start of with a gigantic room. To skip the importance of sealing for the time being and to think broader than one room. Then just use ground without wall, just to visualise the structure of the level.  Then just use prefab walls and other elements (arches, etc.). Just building area's that aren't enclosed. I can always close them at a later point. Maybe this is all very logical from a mappers perspective, but tdm is the first game where I have done any kind of real mapping and I always stop at the start. It just takes too long to make something exciting.
      I want to build something at some point, because over time I accumulated lots of ideas.

      It would be nice to have a link to the forum thread of a mission in download section, rather than having to search for it manually, like on Thief Guild.

      Anaglypta , floral and damask wallpaper look great in older homes 
      It’s rare to see anyone using “shader not found” wallpaper in their house

      Terribly difficult juggling map designing with work, but I'm still alive and chipping away at something very special. I'm actually making a collaboration of sorts with a friend, I make the map itself and he acts as my "Chief Scope Creep Consultant" that checks in every so often to make sure this project isn't getting out of hand. It's a good system!
