Weapons defs sounds questions

[Anarchid]

[6:22:01 PM] [LCC]jK synced code can RW synced data AND WRITE unsynced data
[6:22:19 PM] unsynced code can RW unsynced data and READ synced data
[6:23:15 PM] [LCC]jK and no LUS, is pure synced
[6:24:01 PM] and yes, ctrl := write
[6:24:41 PM] [LCC]jK but then the sound is played for all
[6:24:56 PM] and LOS doesn't matter only distance
[6:25:08 PM] to cam

Oh well.

gameparams is faster than send to unsynced. I mean really at this point the thread is just discussing how we could do it via lua but I still feel the water and ground sounds area of the wiki needs clarification either from testing/statement from a dev.

But there are other gadgets that also send everything to unsynced; they don't cause as much slowdown. I still think it's the handling of the event and not sending that causes fps loss.

Dunno, I always found it to be a bit of a delay. Somewhere in the chain. It is highly dependent on lag IIRC

Maybe they are because you can't send tables via gameparams? If anything I think using spairs should be avoided as far as possible.

[Forboding Angel]

So clarify for me... Are there different sounds that can be played if something is a hit in water vs land? If so, my life just got significantly better (I've been thinking about tackling how to do this but never saw that in the wiki).

Yes, for ages?

About lava: I know it's not understood by the engine, but it is a known concept if you ask a lot of humans. Would it be desirable to include it also in the simulation?
