Network Protocol/SELECT

Overview

This article describes the record type SELECT of the Network Protocol. During the SELECT/PREPARE phase, the consoles synchronize their clocks using "time_sender" and "time_receiver" so the race starts at the same time for all players.

typedef struct udp_select_t
{
 /*00*/  u64	time_sender;      // NULL or time of sender (milliseconds since 2000-01-01, based on real time clock)
 /*08*/  u64	time_receiver;    // NULL or assumed time of the receiver, based on the last received time
